Join the Rowan Chamber of Commerce in celebrating the successes of our business community at the 99th Annual Gala on Thursday, January 23, 2025. Presented by Novant Health, this premiere event will take place at 6 p.m. at the West End Plaza Event Center.

“This year’s theme, ‘Winter in the Garden,’ will transform the West End Plaza into an enchanting winter wonderland, setting the stage to honor the remarkable businesses and individuals who contribute to our community’s growth,” said Kristen Reavis of Novant Health, chair of the Gala.

The program will include the ceremonial passing of the gavel from 2024 Chair of the Board, Terry Osborne, General Manager of the Rowan-Kannapolis ABC Board, to 2025 Chair of the Board, Steve Fisher, President and CEO of F&M Bank. The Gala will feature a sit-down dinner and time to connect and network with business leaders. Dress for the evening is semi-formal.

The Chamber will recognize exemplary business and community leaders through prestigious awards such as the Small Business of the Year, Volunteer of the Year, Young Professional of the Year, Minority Business of the Year, and the Duke Energy Citizenship and Service Award.

In honor of its 100th Anniversary in 2025, the Chamber will also be recognizing long-term businesses all year long.
