“This annual KICKOFF Breakfast is one of our most energetic and highly anticipated Commerce & Coffee events,” said Chanda Ryan, President/CEO. “It gives our business community an opportunity to connect while celebrating the students, coaches and traditions that bring so much pride to Navarre.”

Attendees are encouraged to wear their favorite game-day apparel and compete for the title of Most Spirited Chamber Member.

New this year, attendees may also participate in a Best Decorated Tailgate Table Competition. Chamber members can reserve a table, decorate it in honor of their favorite team and invite spirited friends, co-workers or fellow Chamber members to join them during the program. There is no additional charge to decorate a reserved tailgate table, but advance reservations are required.

Participants are encouraged to prepare their team’s fight song, a favorite football tradition or another creative display of team spirit to share during the competition.

In addition to the football festivities, attendees can expect energetic networking, door prizes, a 50/50 raffle and opportunities to learn about Chamber programs, volunteer activities and sponsorships.
