Annual Banquet
The Norfolk Area Chamber of Commerce Annual Banquet is a premier celebration each year!
It is a night to thank members for their patronage, give out prestigious awards, and celebrate the business community. As tradition goes, there is a new theme each year and table sponsors square off for the best decorated table award. 2019 marks the 50th consecutive Annual Banquet.
