2012 Annual Meeting Luncheon & Awards for Chamber Excellence

Join the Chamber as we present our Annual Awards for Chamber Excellence (ACE Awards) to the member companies that have demonstrated excellence, innovation and community involvement over the past year. We will also transition the Chamber board leadership from 2011-2012 under Chair Tim Sargeant of Dominion to 2012-2013 under Chair Michael Ferraro of Training Solutions. 

Our key note speaker will be Paul Hewitt, Head Coach of George Mason University's Men's Basketball team. Paul Hewitt was named the ninth head coach in George Mason men's basketball program history on May 2, 2011 following 11 years as the head coach at Georgia Tech. Under Hewitt's leadership, Tech went to the NCAA Tournament five times, played for a national championship and played for two ACC Championships. Paul ranks 17th in NCAA all-time career victories. He restored a national profile to Tech basketball with traditional values, instilling in his program the importance of strong defense, teamwork and sharing the basketball, individual skill development and mental preparation.
