NIGHT AT THE PARK

The Boone Area Chamber of Commerce's 72nd Annual Meeting and Fundraiser

It's been a long 18-months! As we deal with the ebbs and flows of this pandemic life we live today, there is one idea where we can all find agreement: We need a night off!

To celebrate our business community and all we have achieved together in the last year, we happily invite you to join us for a Night at the Park, the Boone Area Chamber of Commerce's 72nd Annual Meeting and Fundraiser, presented by First Horizon Bank. Additional event support comes from Appalachian Regional Healthcare System, Peak Group Insurance, and Spangler Restoration.

Make plans to join us Tuesday, October 12th, from 4:30-7:30pm at Valle Crucis Community Park.

In addition to our members and their guests, we are pleased to welcome North Carolina Secretary of Commerce Michelle Baker Sanders as our featured guest for the evening.

Line up a sitter and bring your lawnchairs!  This casual edition of our Annual Membership Meeting will be centered around connecting and reflecting with other members of the business community, while also celebrating some of the most impactful members of the High Country Community with the presentation of our Annual Awards. 

In a show of thanks to our gracious hosts, we will be donating a portion of the event proceeds to the Valle Crucis Community Park, to help them maintain one of the High Country's most unique family destinations.  

As we rebrand our Annual Membership Meeting as Night at the Park, remember this event serves as the Boone Area Chamber of Commerce's largest fundraiser of the year, enabling us to continue to advocate on behalf of our nearly 750 members. 

The evening includes:

  • Networking, dinner, drinks from 4:30-6:15.
  • Special video presentation of the Boone Area Chamber of Commerce Annual Awards.
  • Remarks by NC Secretary of Commerce Machelle Baker Sanders
  • Food and drinks from Reid's Catering
  • A special gift from our event sponsors that will motivate you to find a nice place outside every once in awhile.

Holding this event outdoors will allow us to have a gathering of this nature in the safest possible condition. We will adhere to current event guidance from NCDHSS, AppHealthCare, and Watauga County to promote an atmosphere of safety and responsibility. 

Thank you for your continued support of the Boone Area Chamber of Commerce. We'll see you at the park!
