Description
However, you may still register using the FREE option to receive the Zoom link.
This year's event will be different but we didn't want to miss the opportunity to celebrate our businesses and honor those who have contributed to our special community. We will also pay tribute to those lost this past year. In addition to being held virtually, this year's event is scheduled closer to the holidays so that you can take advantage of the donations from local businesses for your gift-giving needs, and continue to shop and live locally.
There is no deadline to register to join us via the Zoom link, which is FREE.
Tickets for a special Gala-to-Go bag will be available for purchase, which will contain all the goodies listed below and some surprises! Each bag is suitable for one or two guests. You may also join us virtually at no cost. Either way, you will receive the Zoom link in your confirmation email. The deadline for ordering the Gala-to-Go bags is Tuesday, December 1 at 3:00 pm.

$20 Dining Dollars certificate, redeemable at your choice of seven local favorites!

Pillar of the Community - This is the Chamber's longest running and most prestigious award. It was created to honor those in the community who have made a distinctive contribution to the enrichment of life in the greater Falls Church area.
COVID Community Champions - While there won't be a specific award for any one business, we will recognize those businesses that stepped out of their normal lines of business to support others in the community.
Bidding is open for fantastic items in our online auction - Maskerade2020 - great for holiday gift giving!
