Chamber members only and a guest. Reservations required in advance at info@annandalechamber.com.

RSVP:  info@annandalechamber.com Members are eligible to sponsor a Midday Marketing Reception, just contact the chamber office.  The chamber will make all the arrangements and provide you with complimentary advertising and promotion for a small sponsorship fee.    This is an effective way to market your business while entertaining & networking with fellow chamber members on their way home from work.
