22nd Annual
Mountain View Chamber of Commerce
Celebration of Leaders Awards Gala
Join us for an evening of celebration at the Mountain View Chamber of Commerce’s 22nd Annual Celebration of Leaders Awards!
We celebrate to honor Mountain View Businesses and Business Leaders who have made exceptional contributions and service to the Mountain View Community. These outstanding honorees have all given generously of their time and resources to help make Mountain View a vibrant and unique community.
This evening is about our community and we are honored to partner with 7 local Non-Profits, who will recognize their Volunteer of the Year - individuals who have made an outstanding impact to the community through their Non-Profit.
Come help honor these individuals and businesses by purchasing a ticket today for $160. Tables of 10 are available at $1400 so bring your friends and make a night of Mixing & Mingling with leaders of the community!
A little about the night. We start with a welcome reception with hosted wine, browse the silent auction must-have packages (preview items below!), and try your luck at our Mystery Wine Wall - out of 20 wine bottles, will you find the best one?
Dinner will be served at 7:00pm and emceed by Tony Siress, President & CEO of Mountain View Chamber and Kim Copher, Chamber Board Chair and of Coldwell Banker Real Estate.
