The Melrose Inn in Tryon will be hosting the 25th Annual Chamber of Commerce Awards Celebration on Feb. 21.

The Chamber of Commerce’s 335-membership represents the strength of business in the community, and each year the Chamber of Commerce receives nominations from the community to honor particular individuals.

Awards will be given to those who have shown extraordinary efforts to volunteer their time, and a business that is recognized for longevity, community involvement, success and is well respected by the community.

Dinner will be provided at the Melrose Inn, prepared by Marilyn Doheny, who along with being a world-famous contemporary quilt artist, author and decorator, is also a gourmet chef.  Tickets include a complete five-course dinner and beer/wine.  The deadline to RSVP is Feb. 15.

For ticket pricing or other information, call the chamber at 859-6236. Dinner will be from 6-8 p.m., and all chamber members have been sent an email or regular mail invitation.
