Thank you to our guests from the community, local nonprofits and area fundraising organizations who attended our September Chamber Luncheon featuring special guest speaker, Donald Cooke, Vice President of The Alford Group. The post-pandemic world is full of challenges for the nonprofit sector and intense competition for resources. As we enter into the last quarter of the year, a particularly important time to inspire and generate support, we were thrilled to welcome Mr. Cooke, an expert in the field of philanthropy, to cover the topic for all of us.

A special thank you to our generous event sponsor:

Thank you to all who attended and supported the 2024 'Then & Now' Auto Show and helped make it another tremendous success. Once again we had a fabulous showing of hand-selected vintage legends alongside luxury superstars of today with a diverse lineup of more than 100 cars representing a century of excellence. New for 2024, we were thrilled to feature a selection of rare, unique and highly sought after motorcycles -- a wonderful addition to show. We would like to extend a special thank you to our fabulous Auto Show committee and our co-chairs, John Maxson and Ed Russ who lead the charge in organizing this exceptional display of “drivable art.”

Our thanks to Leroy Koetz for graphic design and event photography!
