Wheaton & Kensington Chamber of Commerce
38th Annual Community Awards Event ~ Virtual
Wednesday, June 29, 2022 from 6:30 - 8:00 pm
Out of caution, the pandemic causes us to revise our normal Awards Banquet for a third year. We’ve again moved the Annual Community Awards online and will be giving out the awards and thanking our sponsors virtually this year on the Zoom platform - in partnership with InterAct Story Theatre / Home of the Wheaton Family Theatre.
Celebrate the connection and goodwill between citizens, businesses, and public safety workers in the area community. Join us to give thanks to those receiving these well-deserved annual awards.
Help us recognize Mid-County Community Heroes, and the individuals and groups making a difference in our community!
In recognition of their great service in providing a higher level and enhanced care beyond that of a traditional assisted senior living community. Residents can participate in a variety of programs also offered to the public, including cooking classes and lectures. Kensington Park hosts numerous fundraisers and food drives, and is a wonderful supporter of the Chamber.
