Join us for the last First Friday Morning Brew of 2026, sponsored by Christ Church! ☕

More than a networking event, Morning Brew is built around the principle of net-giving—creating meaningful opportunities for Chamber partners to build diverse business relationships by first asking, "What can I do for you?"

Whether you're looking for a fresh perspective, a trusted connection, or a solution to a business challenge, you'll find business leaders who are eager to share ideas, open doors, and help one another succeed. That's what makes Morning Brew one of our most valuable partner benefits—and why so many of our partners make it part of their monthly routine.

📅 Friday, November 6
🕗 8:00–9:30 a.m.
📍 Christ Church-Mt. View, 2416 Zion Church Road, Hickory
