On Friday, October 2, the McMinnville Area Chamber of Commerce welcomed 275 guests to Evergreen Reception Hall for our 2026 Annual Meeting and Awards Gala — an evening dedicated to celebrating the people, businesses, nonprofits and community leaders who help make McMinnville a great place to live, work and do business.
The Annual Meeting serves an important purpose for the Chamber as our required annual business meeting, but the evening is about much more than conducting business. It is an opportunity to pause, reflect on the year, recognize accomplishments and celebrate the people who contribute their time, talent and energy to our community.
This year’s celebration brought together local business owners, community leaders, volunteers, nonprofit organizations, Chamber members and friends for an evening centered around McMinnville businesses and the people who make our community stronger.
