You can now register up to 9am the day of the luncheon, but $15 Early Bird Pricing for Members will automatically cut off AT the 24hr mark (11AM THE DAY BEFORE). Monthly Luncheons are $15 for Chamber Members if you register before 24 hours before the luncheon. AT 24hours before, luncheons are $20 for everyone. When registering, Members will see $20 in the registration fee, but you will see a $5 Early Bird Discount immediately after you click on the $20 fee, if you register early enough. AT the 24hour mark (11am the day before), pricing will automatically go to $20 with no discount, so if Chamber Members register for the luncheon at the 24hour mark or later, you will pay $20.

Refunds will only be made if cancellation is received at least 24 hours in advance. If you prepay but cannot attend, call the office before the 24hr mark and we can move your payment to the next lunch, no problem, but you must let us know 24 hours in advance! Thank you!
