ANNUAL EVENTS

Business at Noon luncheons

The Business at Noon luncheon program offers members an opportunity to network as well as hear from speakers from around the area. Each year, local leaders are invited to share current events and news with over 100 people from the business community. Every year the mayor and the county judge executive deliver their "state of the city" and "state of the county" addresses respectively. Luncheons take place on the third Friday of the month in the Perkins Building on the campus of EKU.

Thursday Night Live
The Chamber's after-hours program named Thursday Night Live is the venue in which members meet and greet and make new business contacts. Hors d'oeuvres and adult beverages are served at various host sites. There are traditionally 8-10 events per year.

Commerce Awards

With its 23 year history and guest list comprised of nearly 400 of Madison County's top business leaders and entrepreneurs, the Commerce Awards Banquet has become one of Richmond's premiere events. This event takes place in the Keen Johnson ballroom on the campus of EKU and honors those who give so much to our community and Chamber.

Annual Golf Tournament
The Chamber of Commerce hosts a golf tournament each year in May. This event is our largest fundraiser. With 144 players, this is one of the largest tournaments in Madison County.
