In honor of the many volunteers who help the Carlsbad Chamber of Commerce throughout the year, a special First Friday Breakfast Volunteer Recognition event will take place from 7 to 9 a.m. Dec. 7 at the Hilton Garden Inn, 6450 Carlsbad Blvd.
Each year, hundreds of volunteers donate their time to the Chamber, helping with everything from events to new program development. Through their contributions, the Chamber has become the largest business organization in North County.
"Volunteers are the backbone of organizations like ours. They help us effectively serve our community," said Ted Owen, president and CEO of the Chamber. "Without our amazing volunteer base, this Chamber would not be the second largest in the county and the 10th largest in the state. They are vital to our unity in community mission."
The breakfast is one of the best networking opportunities of the year, and is also a fun and positive event.
Attendees will have the opportunity to meet with one another and share ideas while enjoying a delicious breakfast buffet.
The awards will be presented for various categories, including committee member of the year, committee of the year and other areas of special recognition.
The winner of the Chamber’s Refer and Earn program will also be announced.
Tickets for the event are $30 for Chamber members who register by Wednesday, Nov. 30. After that day, and at the door, tickets are $55, where seating is not guaranteed and is available on a first-come, first-served basis.
For more information, contact Kathy Steffen, the Chamber's member services manager, at [email protected].
Tabletop exhibits or Soapbox presentations are not available for this First Friday Breakfast.
