Thanks to our supportive and patient members and sponsors, the Chamber hosted its 111th Annual Meeting on Friday, September 18. Our keynote speaker, Charlotte Westerhaus-Renfrow reminded us that "a setback is a setup for a comeback" and that the single best predictor of success is resilience. Thanks to Gold Sponsor Centra Credit Union, Silver Sponsor African American Fund of Bartholomew County, and Livestream Sponsor Columbus Regional Health.
