Annual Legislative Breakfast

Debbie Stohlman, President/CEO

The Culpeper Chamber of Commerce will host its annual Legislative Breakfast on December 3rd, at Germanna Daniel Technology Center. We begin the program with breakfast at 7:30am and presentations promptly start at 8:00am.  This event gives you, as a representative of an organization, agency or business, the opportunity to present positions to our elected state officials. Culpeper’s senators and delegates welcome this format and use the information presented to plan for the upcoming General Assembly.

Culpeper County benefits from the representation of 3 senators and 2 delegates; Senator Jill Vogel, 27th District, Senator Bryce Reeves, 17th District, Senator Emmett Hanger, 24th District, Delegate Michael Webert, 18th District, and  Delegate Ed Scott, 30th District.  We are pleased to announce each will be present to listen to your comments and requests.  

It is not often that the public has access to the eyes and ears of our state leadership in the same place, at the same time, all listening to the same messages and pleas.  This unique opportunity is open to chamber membership and the public. The fee to attend, which includes breakfast, is $30 while members of the Culpeper Chamber of Commerce are offered the benefit of a discounted rate of $20.

If you have an interest in making a presentation to our distinguished panel, please advise us when you make your reservation. You will be asked to submit a copy of your presentation to  the Chamber office by Noon, Monday, December 1, 2014.  We simply ask that comments are directed to issues appropriate for the General Assembly.

Advance registration is a requirement.  You may let us know you will be attending by registering at www.culpeperchamber.com or call Linda Dodrill at 540-825-8628 x16.

This is your chance to be heard by our state representation and to hear what your neighbors and colleagues deem to be relevant issues.  Consider this your invitation to join us.  Help fill the meeting room as a show of interest and concern for what will take place at the 2015 General Assembly.
