Business After Hours is a monthly member-only networking event held at a Chamber member location.  There is no cost to attend, and there are usually hors d'oeuvres and a cash bar to enjoy, plus door prizes for attendees (you must be present to win).  BAH events usually have 100-175 attendees, although the venue capacity can change that.  Registration is encouraged, as The Chamber provides name tags for attendees, and hosts plan to have enough food for attendees to enjoy.   Learn more... 

New Member Connect occurs twice a year, and is open to all new and long-term members.  Attendees receive an overview of Chamber programs, events and benefits, and attendees have the opportunity to network with one another.  If you're brand new to The Chamber, new to your job or simply wanting to find out "what's new," New Member Connect is perfect for you! 

Morning Buzz is a quarterly speed-networking event... and an extremely popular way to connect with Chamber members.  Through a special rotation pattern, attendees get two minutes to present about their business, and hear from other members.  Once a round is completed, attendees rotate and meet a new group of professionals.  A light breakfast and coffee are available for attendees.  Keep an eye open for Morning Buzz - these events fill up quickly! 

Young Professionals Bloomington, or YPB, is The Chamber's program designed for connecting the under-40 crowd in Bloomington and Monroe County.  The monthly gatherings are usually free to attend, and range in theme from professional development to "just for fun" to volunteer opportunities in the community.  A highlight of the YPB calendar is the annual 10 Under 40 Awards, typically held in late July or early August.  YPB is open to anyone, regardless of Chamber membership.
