During the program the outgoing and incoming board members are recognized as well as businesses that joined the Chamber in the last fiscal year. In addition, the focus for the new fiscal year is shared with time spent sharing the past year’s accomplishments. At the conclusion of the informational program, entertainment is provided that ranges from musical to comedy to interactive and everything in between.
Throughout the evening, attendees have the opportunity to participate in a 50/50 Raffle, a craft beer & wine draw, and silent auctions boasting fabulous prizes. All funds raised during the evening will be put back into the community through member advertisement, educational workshops and student scholarships.
The goal of this evening is for Chamber members to be recognized, to network with one another, and be entertained all while doing a small amount of fundraising.

Downtown New London is still OPEN, and now more accessible!! Much of the utility replacement work for the downtown reconstruction project is wrapping up. Crews will be removing most of the heavy equipment and opening up barricades on North Water Street making it easier to drive through and allow for more on street parking in the downtown. The next phases will include pouring concrete on the sidewalks where new laterals were installed. The city’s contactor will also begin working on constructing the NEW AND EXPANDED parking lot along Lincoln Court providing additional and more convenient off street parking. Because of this the existing city parking lot at 210 Lincoln court will close starting on September 18th. Once the new parking lot is developed, crews will then work on installing the new water main on St. John’s Place from Park Street to North Water Street. By the end of September they plan on having that complete and the temporary layer of asphalt placed on North Water Street. In the beginning of October the contractor will work on removing and replacing curb, gutter, and sidewalk on State Street, Lincoln Court, St. John’s Place. Once the concrete is complete in those areas those three roads will be pulverized and paved with the new parking lot area. All of this work is anticipated to be done in late October. Come downtown and support our great local businesses!
