Online Registration is Now Closed - We Encourage You to Still Join Us and Register at the Door!

We are thrilled to extend an invitation to our chamber members for this year's holiday business after-hours networking event at Woodstock's Pizza. If you haven't had the chance to experience their transformation since the grand reopening in June, this event is the perfect opportunity to witness the remarkable changes firsthand.

At Woodstock's Pizza, they have undergone an incredible evolution, introducing a full bar, extended patio, new arcade, and additional group seating, all while maintaining our unwavering commitment to quality pizza and customer service.

Additionally, we are proud to announce that this event will double as a food drive to support Second Harvest Food Bank of Santa Cruz County. Second Harvest Food Bank's mission is to inspire and support Santa Cruz County to provide nourishment for all community members. Your attendance will not only foster professional connections but also contribute to a meaningful cause in our community. We encourage attendees to bring non-perishable food to support the drive – most needed foods are canned meat, peanut butter, soups, chili beans, cereal, canned fruit and vegetables, whole grain rice, pasta and oats.

If you can't join us that night, stop by between 1 pm - 5 pm to drop off food donations. Santa Cruz Metro will be supporting this event and will have a bus parked in front of Woodstock's Pizza in the loading zone to collect your donations. Santa Cruz Metro will be offering every person who donates a canned item a free 1-Ride Pass.

Please come dressed in something festive to join in the holiday spirit; whatever holiday you celebrate whether Kwanza, Chanukah, Christmas or even if you don’t recognize a holiday put your own spin on the season.

Refreshments will be provided, with drinks from West Peak Sparkling Spirits, Sierra Nevada, and Big Basin Vineyards available to enjoy throughout the evening.

We will hold a raffle and encourage all companies in attendance to bring a gift card or gift certificate to contribute. This is not mandatory but another fun way to market your company and bring joy to one of our attendees.

We sincerely hope you can join us for this special event. This event promises to be our largest business after-hours event of the year, providing you with the opportunity to connect with fellow business professionals in a vibrant and festive atmosphere.
