The Blue Water Chamber of Commerce has hosted the luncheon address for the past 10 years.

The luncheon is open to the public, however registration is required, the cost is $30 per person and includes a buffet lunch. This year, U.S. Senator Gary Peters will also address the crowd during the luncheon. The luncheon begins at 11am at and will run till 1:15pm.
