Thank you to everyone who attended our annual Business and Government Lunch last month and helped make it such a tremendous success. Our sold out crowd enjoyed a program that featured the introduction of the 2025 Chamber Officers, presentation of the 2025 "Community Leadership Award" to Britt Carter and Company, and the highlight, the annual "State of the Towns" presentation by Lake Forest City Manager Jason Wicha and Lake Bluff Village Administrator Drew Irvin.
For those who missed it, please enjoy a video recording of the event courtesy of Bruce Himmelblau of Blue Sky Video Productions and a gallery of photos courtesy of Michael Delott Photography and Headshots.
