Committee members will also share updates on upcoming events, including Business Success Group, Cornhole Tournament & more.

Networking time starts at 10:30am, giving attendees a full hour to network before the luncheon program begins at 11:30am. We welcome anyone who can come at that time to do so. It is, of course, optional but we are excited to be able to give this opportunity to attendees, members and guests alike.

Let's Get Together... In Your Neighborhood!

Meeting members & supporting businesses... one neighborhood at a time!

This year, after a topsy-turvy couple of years, we are committed to meeting our members where they are. We want to make it EASIER for our members to connect with Fenton Chamber staff and fellow members, as well as meeting fellow business owners near them that they may not meet at other events. With each of these IYN events, we will target a specific "neighborhood" location by choosing a meeting place for breakfast or lunch and then we will personally invite members and non-members, within close distance of that location, to attend.
