The Great Bend Chamber of Commerce is thrilled to announce its 102nd Annual Awards ceremony, an evening dedicated to recognizing the organization’s leadership and volunteers, the individuals and businesses who stood out, and the Unsung Heroes who have made exceptional contributions to the community. This year's event will take place on Feb. 24, 2024, at Corinthians Hill Event Center – a new venue that promises to add a touch of elegance to the celebration.
Alongside Presenting Sponsors Barton Community College, Spectrum CPA, and The University of Kansas Health System, the festivities will kick off at 6 pm with a social and cocktail hour, providing attendees with an opportunity to network and enjoy an open bar, courtesy of Equity Bank.
