Join us Thursday, February 16, 2023 for our Elected Officials Reception where you can, in a casual setting, connect with the elected officials who serve our community. 

This popular social provides Chamber members the opportunity to get to know officials from local municipalities, Union County Commissioners, Board of Education members, members of the Union County delegation to Raleigh, local Judges, and others.  

It's a unique opportunity to connect with your elected officials.  The casual, informal setting allows you to mingle and approach the elected officials with whom you are interested in connecting.  We will create and update a list of attendees as we receive confirmations.
