Networking That Feels Natural

Each event is hosted by a Chamber business or organization at its location. Hosts have an opportunity to welcome fellow members, introduce their team, showcase services and share business updates or expansion plans.

The host provides food and refreshments, while the Chamber helps promote the gathering and welcome attendees. Fun Thursday is open to Greater Bartow Chamber members at no charge.
