Business Excellence Dinner

Held in June, The Business Excellence Dinner is designed to call attention to the importance of outstanding achievement within the business community. The dinner includes the presentation of the "Lifetime Achievement Award for Business Excellence."
The Lifetime Achievement Award for Business Excellence honors an individual who, during the course of at least twenty-five years, has been regarded as a business leader in the region and who has positively impacted the Blair County business community. The awardee must be a member of the Blair County Chamber of Commerce, should have some involvement - past or present - with the Chamber and be regarded as a strong corporate citizen. A Selection Committee, comprised of members of the Chamber’s Executive Committee, Chamber Staff and Past Award Recipients will review nominations and select the honoree. To nominate an individual to receive the award, complete the nomination form and return it to the Chamber by February 28.
