Thanksgiving Luncheon

November 19, 2026 11:00 AM - 1:00 PM (CST)

Description

Join the Peoria Area Chamber of Commerce for a Thanksgiving lunch with colleagues, business leaders, and community partners from across the region. It's a chance to reconnect, recognize the people whose work moves Greater Peoria forward, and hear the stories only this community can tell.


This year's program features Jenn Gordon, president and CEO of WTVP, whose keynote will explore why telling our own stories matters. We'll recognize the recipients of the Tom Connor Service Award and Above & Beyond Award and share a look at the Chamber's impact and the work ahead.


Nominate a community leader or business

Know an individual or company whose work deserves to be recognized? Nominations are open through Friday, October 16 at 5 p.m. The Tom Connor Service Award honors a Tri-County individual for sustained volunteer leadership and civic impact. The Above & Beyond Award recognizes a corporation or LLC whose economic impact, community investment, and leadership strengthen quality of life across our region. Recipients will be recognized at the luncheon.
