? Advocate for policies and initiatives that benefit our members
? Improve events & resources to maximize your membership value |

The South Fairfax Chamber Board recently hosted a group of Chamber members who have gone above and beyond to assist the Chamber's mission.
The VIP Recognition Reception was a thank you to those business owners and non-profit Directors who support the SFCC through volunteering on a Chamber committee, assisting with community events and ribbon cuttings, sponsoring networking STIRs, scholarships, our Achievement Honors, and as annual Sustaining Members.
The Wine Attic of Lorton, a new Chamber member, hosted the evening. Special thanks to owners Juan Navarro and his wife Renee for being gracious hosts and picking out a great selection of wines! |
If you would like to get more involved by serving on a Chamber Committee, email Executive Director Carla Olivo at SFCCExecDirector@gmail.com. |
