News about the chamber

Get to meet and mingle with your fellow chamber members and business people at the After Hours Outdoor Networking at the Chamber on Thursday, Aug. 19, from 5:30 to 7 p.m. in the outdoor courtyard at the Wake Forest Area Chamber of Commerce building, 305 South White Street. (Did you know the building was originally a garage with gasoline sales in front, later repurposed as the station for the Wake Forest Town Fire Department with the Wake Forest Rural Fire Department next door in the building where Sweetie’s is?)

The event will be hosted by Triangle Divorce Lawyers and will feature light refreshments.

The event is for chamber members only; no spouses or children. Because of COVID-19, you must RSVP in advance.
