The Kent County Chamber of Commerce is proud to highlight the success of its recent community engagement efforts, reinforcing its commitment to "Connecting Kent County" through a series of impactful events.
The Chamber kicked off its spring and summer activities with the Post-Legislative Session Breakfast Discussion in April, providing members valuable insights into legislative developments affecting local businesses. This event was followed by the 5-County Regional Chamber Mixer at Chesapeake College in May, which brought together business leaders from across the region for an evening of networking and collaboration.
Joint Mixer with Middletown Area Chamber of Commerce at Deep Blue at Kitty Knight
In June, the Kent Chamber hosted a Joint Mixer with the Middletown Area Chamber of Commerce at Deep Blue at Kitty Knight, fostering out-of-state community connections and business opportunities. The month culminated with the highly successful Inaugural Golf Tournament on June 17th at the Chester River Yacht and Country Club. Sponsored by Cross Street Realtors, the tournament was very well received and raised funds for Horizons of Kent and Queen Anne's, this year's Community Excellence Award winner for Organization of the Year.

"We are thrilled with the success of these events and the strong community participation," said Sarah King, Executive Director of the Kent County Chamber of Commerce. "Each event has played a vital role in fostering connections, supporting local businesses, and giving back to the community."
The Chamber extends its gratitude to all sponsors and participants who made these events possible and looks forward to continuing its mission of promoting economic growth and community engagement in Kent County.
