Prince William Chamber of Commerce

Yesterday, the Chamber's Board of Directors spent the day at the beautiful Effingham Manor & Winery strategizing and planning the year ahead. We heard about an outline for the Chamber's new strategic plan, to include addressing issues in the business community like permitting, zoning, land use, and bonds. Discussion about continuing expanding support and membership into the Woodbridge area was had. A lot of exciting discussions and work was had within the Board meeting.
