The Oak Ridge Chamber of Commerce has its spring Primetime networking event on Thursday.

This spring’s theme is “Under the Bigtop.” Jugglers, carnival food, and music will all add to the festive environment, a press release said.

The event will be held from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. Thursday in the parking lot of the Oak Ridge Chamber of Commerce. Primetime is designed to stimulate sales, so anyone—Chamber member or not—is encouraged to attend, the release said.

This is the Chamber’s premiere networking event of the year. It’s an opportunity for members of the Chamber to network with one another as well as to allow members of the public to come by and see what area businesses have to offer. More than 75 Chamber member businesses have already reserved exhibit space, many of whom will be offering door prizes.

Parker Hardy, president of the Oak Ridge Chamber of Commerce said: “Our Primetime networking events are a huge hit among our membership.
