“I am truly grateful to have had the time to get to know Bob McKenna and his brilliant team for their warm invitation and leadership. They are doing remarkable work to uplift business growth and drive forward progress throughout the entire Peninsula.

As a newer member to the Chamber, I’ve found their events to be both intentionally purposeful and genuinely meaningful.  I see the Virginia Peninsula Chamber of Commerce as a true conduit, connecting businesses that are committed not only to their own growth, but also to serving the communities they support.  Even more, it has brought together one of the most impressive groups of like-minded members/professionals I’ve had the privilege of being a part of.

Joining this Chamber has been one of the best investments our organization has made thus far. They truly live their mission and vision, and I wholeheartedly recommend joining the Virginia Peninsula Chamber of Commerce.”
