Event:
The Chamber is complying with the state mandate and asks that members follow the CDC Guidelines/State Mandate at Chamber functions. Please remember that people will have differing levels of comfort as we return to in-person events. Handshaking and standing in close proximity may still make people uneasy. So, we ask that all participants be respectful of this. Bring your best fist bump, reconnect and enjoy.
We want to do our best to provide a safe environment for this event, so we will have boxes of masks at the registration table to provide to anyone who may not have a mask.
