General Chamber Meetings are scheduled inside the Colvins Banquet Room, and are currently scheduled for in-person sessions as of April, 2022. The Chamber's Board will continue to monitor COVID-19 and decide whether to continue in-person meetings or revert to Zoom meetings like what were required during the peak of the pandemic.
