VIP Experience & Celebration Box

A Chamber awards event isn’t complete without that extra bit of pizazz, so did you expect our virtual event to differ? This year, we’re offering a VIP Experience for your team to celebrate the evening with personalized charcuterie platters, champagne and glassware, and of course desserts, designed for 10 people! For our VIP’s, this also means added visibility during the awards event as an on-screen mention.

Only want the bubbles and sweets? That works for us! Reserve a Business Celebration Box complete with champagne and personal desserts for 10, providing your party with all you need to celebrate along with us. 

NOTE: We recognize social gatherings are limited to only five individuals at this time, so please understand these celebratory additions will be split into two separate pieces: one box per five individuals. Connect with Amy Tanska to reserve your VIP & Celebration Additions.


Thank you to: Presenting Sponsor, Port of Vancouver USA; Supporting Sponsor, PeaceHealth; Media Sponsor, The Columbian; Awards Sponsors, Riverview Community Bank, PeaceHealth, HAPO Community Credit Union, and Perkins & Co.
