The North Florida Green Chamber of Commerce, making it cool and convenient to be green, is hosting its annual Green Tie Affair Gala.
The Green Chamber has planned a night of networking and fun at the Green Tie Affair Gala on Thursday, Feb. 10th from 6-8p.m. at Brick & Beam, 1101 N Main St., in Historic Springfield.
This year’s theme is “Love Your Planet”, a perfect way to celebrate Valentine’s Day. Come for a night filled with food, music, fun, and prizes.
There will be opportunities to create your own eco-friendly Valentine’s Day card and bid on raffle baskets. Shop from Green Chamber members and vendors to find the perfect sustainable gift for a loved one. Take action to “Love Your Planet” by having a tree planted in your name. Make sure to wear your best “green” tie for the chance to win a door prize!
The dress code is business casual.
