The Columbia-Adair County Chamber of Commerce is preparing for its annual awards banquet…only with a twist this year. The Banquet is Friday, July 19, 5:30 – 7:00pm and will be held at The Barn at Cedar Grove. The Banquet will precede the Adair County Tourism Fundraiser and Mixer beginning at 7:00pm at the same location but will require separate tickets.
The second twist is that this year award recipients do not have to be a Chamber member. However, Chamber members will still be making award nominations and still be deciding by vote the recipient of each award. Each nominee will be recognized at the banquet. New categories have also been added this year for a total of eleven award winners: Agriculturist, Business/Professional Man, Business/Professional Woman, Small Business, Large Business, Community Enhancement, Educator, Employee, First Responder, Health Advocate, Volunteer. Nominee ballots will be emailed shortly.
Banquet tickets are $25 each and must be picked up AND paid for in advance since our meal is being catered and they must have an accurate count to know how much food to prepare. This year we won’t be able to add anyone at the last minute. More information about where to purchase tickets will be forth coming.
Remember, though, if your business is a Corporate Sponsor you are entitled to free ticket(s) that correspond with your level of sponsorship…Platinum – 4 free tickets; Gold – 2 free tickets; Silver – 1 free ticket. Corporate Sponsors are listed below.
We realize this is very different from previous years but look forward to a wonderful time of networking and celebrating! For more information, please contact the Chamber of Commerce at 270-384-6020 or email at coladair@duo-county.com .
