Business After Hours
Network and socialize with others in the business community.

Networking and relationship building remain some of the most utilized aspects of BACC membership.
Serving as one of the Boone Area Chamber of Commerce signature events, Business After Hours provides a unique networking opportunity at various venues throughout the High Country. Most Business After Hours events will occur on the second Thursday of every month from 5:00-7:00PM, unless otherwise noted.
Further details and opportunities to RSVP will be sent via e-mail the month leading up to each event. Attendees will enjoy complimentary appetizers along with beer and wine, provided by some of the area’s most popular restaurants and catering professionals. BACC members and guests are welcome!
Mark your calendar, get your business cards ready, and learn more about what these businesses have to offer at Business After Hours!
