Annual Meeting
The Annual Meeting is an event for Chamber members, this is a chance for everyone to celebrate their hard work and dedication for the Kearney community. Each year we bring in a different speaker, along with various auction items to bid on. This is also a ceremony to recognize the retiring board members as well as the new Chairmen of the board.
