34th Annual Dinner

The entrepreneurs of our Downtown are one of the great reasons our central business district is so unique. We are pleased that one of those amazing entrepreneurs, Carol Valentini, will be serving as our keynote speaker at the Annual Dinner. Valentini’s family has been in the restaurant business in this region for 88 years and she is a passionate and strong business leader.

Mark your calendar now to join us for this prime networking event at the DECC Harborside Ballroom on January 23rd.
