Come meet our region's government leadership in an informal reception hosted in the Visitor Center lobby. Each year, the Chamber brings together the mayors of the region and members of the Asheville City Council and Buncombe County Board of Commissioners to meet and network with Western North Carolina's business community. Local elected officials from Western North Carolina attend. This event is FREE to attend. There is no need to register. We encourage guests to wear their business name badges. If the Chamber parking lot fills up, additional parking is available next door at Montford North Star Academy.
