The timing of the event was great this year! Wonderful reception, streamlined program, and it kept a captive audience until its prompt closure at 9PM. The Chamber raised the bar! The decor was elegant and a perfect compliment to the purpose of the event. This food was the best food I ve had at any gala I ve been to. It was a joy to be there to witness the honoring of Dawn Staley. What a true treasure to Columbia. The Chamber s unveiling of their Forward, Together initiative was so inspiring that you could hear a pin drop in the room - it was that captivating. This is truly one of my favorite events each year! I feel that the Chamber Staff has done a great job listening to the customer and tweaking the evening each year to try to improve everyone s experience.
