TOP OF THE TOWN - Truckee Chamber’s 70th Annual Awards Celebration
We are so happy to celebrate our Top of the Town – 70th Annual Truckee Chamber Awards! It is the one time every year when the business community comes together to celebrate Truckee. We honor and recognize excellence by presenting awards to our businesses, innovators, nonprofits, and a standout employee.
This year we welcome our new President and CEO, Jessica Penman. If you haven’t heard about the changes that Jessica and the Truckee Chamber Board of Directors have been implementing with our new strategic plan, this is a great time to talk to them. But mostly we’re excited to get together and toast each other for work well done and enjoy the connections that we’ve made.
We’ll meet close to nature at the Alder Creek Adventure Center, both inside and outside, weather permitting, and enjoy passed appetizers, a charcuterie table, drinks, and cameraderie. Robbie Gade and the All Stars will be playing fun and danceable popular rock from the ‘60s through the ‘90s. You won’t want to miss being a part of this special evening and celebration! BUY TICKETS
