Laissez

les bons temps rouler!

Join us for An Evening in the French Quarter at the 2025 Chairman’s Ball. Step into the New Orleans French Quarter as we honor Chamber Chairman Ann Wolford (The Wolford Group) for her outstanding service as 2024–2025 Chairman. Guests will enjoy an unforgettable evening filled with dinner, dancing, casino games and lively entertainment that captures the spirit of the French Quarter. One of the most anticipated highlights of the evening is the array of creative tabletop displays, each one artfully decorated by Chamber member businesses.

This fun, elegant evening will also welcome 2025-2026 incoming Chairman of the Board Justin Kendrick of Memorial Hermann The Woodlands Medical Center & NE Hospital.

The 2025 Chairman’s Ball is made possible thanks to the generosity of our Presenting Sponsor, SaleQuick, whose support helps bring this spectacular evening to life.

Black tie is optional, but we encourage guests to embrace the theme with a New Orleans French Quarter flair — think elegance with a touch of Mardi Gras spirit!
