“Our annual Sweeps event brings together both chamber and community members for a fun-filled and exciting evening," said Greater Dover Chamber of Commerce President Margaret Joyce. “At the end of the night, someone will walk away $10,000 richer and the chamber will secure much-needed funding for our popular community-based programs.”
This theme for this year’s Sweeps is Mardi Gras. The evening features appetizers, cash bar, a silent auction, raffle prizes, and plenty of games and entertainment for all. Don Briand, the 2015 Dover Chamber Citizen of the Year, will once again guide attendees through the event as the evening’s emcee.
