Good food, live music, great company, and a whole lot of fun... sounds like a pretty successful Business After Hours to us! 🎉

Mid Cities Overhead Door went all out as our October host, welcoming everyone in for an evening of networking, laughs, and some much-needed time to unwind outside the usual workday!

We even got to bring a little Soup Stew Chili & Brew excitement into the mix as we kicked off the festivities for this year's festival! 🍲

And while the food, music, and atmosphere made for a great night, it's the people who make these events worth looking forward to. There's something special about seeing familiar faces, making new introductions, and bringing so many different parts of our local business community together!

A HUGE thank you to Mid Cities Overhead Door for hosting such a fun evening and to everyone who joined us! We couldn't ask for a better way to spend a Thursday evening! 💛

Get ready to Shop Local, Support Local, and Win Chamber CA$H!
From October 1st–12th, shop, dine, and explore downtown Madison with our first-ever Chamberopoly!

This first round is a trial run alongside MACC: Soup Stew Chili & Brew Festival, so we’re starting with downtown Chamber businesses to encourage shopping and foot traffic before, during, and after the festival. And don’t worry, Chamberopoly isn’t just a one-time thing!

We plan to bring it back throughout the year, giving more Chamber members opportunities to participate in future rounds.

🎩 How to play: Pick up a game board, visit participating businesses, make a purchase, and collect a sticker. The more stickers you collect, the more entries you earn to win Chamber CA$H!

🏆 Prizes:
1st Place — $200 Chamber CA$H
2nd Place — $125 Chamber CA$H
3rd Place — $75 Chamber CA$H

📍 Pick up a board at the Madison Area Chamber of Commerce, Visit Madison, the Comfort Station, or any of the 18 participating businesses.

Completed boards must be turned in by end of day October 12th at the Chamber or any participating Chamberopoly business.
