IMPORTANT MESSAGE: CEREMONY POSTPONED
We wanted to share an important update regarding the Military Appreciation Ceremony. Due to the government shutdown, active-duty military members are currently not permitted to attend community events, on or off base. Because of this, we’ve made the difficult decision to postpone the Ceremony.
We are committed to properly celebrating and recognizing our servicemembers, and we want them to be there in person to join us. Once the shutdown is resolved, we will announce a new date and hope to have your continued support.
In the meantime, our Chamber team and board will continue working to support and advocate for our military community.
For questions or concerns, please reach out to Zach Yentzer or Allison Dias.
Thank you for your understanding and support.
