Glendale And Aurora Chambers Of Commerce Join Forces

The Latest Event At Launch Pad Brewery Was A Joint Networking Event


On September 17, 2024, the Greater Glendale Chamber of Commerce and the Aurora Chamber of Commerce collaborated on a Joint Networking event at Launch Pad Brewery in Aurora. This event featured samples of beer, networking between the two chambers, and tours of the production facility. The joint networking event attracted 100 attendees from both chambers and offered great networking.

The two chambers last collaborated over 20 years ago when they hosted back-to-back Casino Nights to raise money for their respective YMCA branches. “As the Glendale Chamber celebrates its 25th anniversary, we owe a debt of gratitude to the Aurora Chamber for helping this chamber get its start,” said Mark Smiley, President of the Greater Glendale Chamber of Commerce. “We were excited to host this event together and foresee more events like this in the future.”


Six Capital Brewing provided award winning barbecue for all members to enjoy, and Casey Bloyer, Distribution Manager, and David Levesque, owner, provided tours of the production facility and educated members on the process of brewing beer.
