The Lake Norman Chamber of Commerce will hold its 30th annual meeting Jan. 12 at The Peninsula Club. The theme for the evening is “A Winning Tradition.” The keynote speech is by Adam Alexander, NASCAR Race Hub Co-Host and Fox NASCAR Announcer.

Alexander, a member of the FOX Sports family since 2006, will discuss what it takes to put together and sustain a winning team.

The Chamber celebrated its 30th anniversary this past September as a catalyst for business owners in and around Cornelius, Davidson, Huntersville and Mooresville.

Entrepreneurship will continue to be a focus  in 2018 as the 950-member organization works with SCORE and Central Piedmont Community College to promote business incubation and development in the lake region. Awards will be presented for entrepreneurship, community service and leadership.

The program includes remarks by outgoing 2017 Board Chair Jay Lesemann Jr., who will review last year’s achievements. The new board chair, Joshua Dobi of Dobi Financial, will officially take over the volunteer reins of the chamber.
