Want to know about the hot issues of the day? The Culpeper Chamber will host the Annual Legislative Breakfast this Friday, December 6th at the Country Club of Culpeper. The purpose of the event is to offer our community the opportunity to express their needs to our representatives of the Virginia General Assembly. Our representatives are able to hear from a wide variety of speakers in preparation for their legislative priorities in the 2014 Session. Confirmed to be in attendance are Delegate Ed Scott, Delegate Michael Webert, and Senator Bryce Reeves. Invited and pending confirmation are Senator Emmett Hanger and Senator Jill Vogel.

We invite those interested in speaking at the event to register at the Culpeper Chamber website. In order to help our representatives fully prepare for the breakfast, we ask that those interested in speaking provide a summary of comments no later than Noon - Thursday, December 5th. Speaking opportunities are limited to 5 minutes and are subject to approval by the Culpeper Chamber of Commerce. The breakfast is open to the community with paid pre-registration at www.CulpeperChamber.com.

In years past we have had speakers on subjects including Education, Health Care, Library, Transportation, Human Services, Museum, and Elder Care Issues. Each year is different as the economic and social needs change. However, the passion for making our community better is ever present. Virginia is known world wide as a great place to do business, as is Culpeper. Our job as a community is to work with our representatives to ensure that Culpeper continues to be a great place to live, work, and play. Join us on Friday, December 6th for the Culpeper Chamber of Commerce Legislative Breakfast. Listen, Network, and or Speak to make a difference.
