What a great evening of food, connections and community!

Our annual Business After Hours brought together Hanover Park businesses, Bartlett Area Chamber of Commerce members and community partners for an evening of networking and celebrating our local business community.

We put our “Global Village” theme front and center with a delicious lineup of food from local restaurants representing the many cultures that make Hanover Park unique.

Mayor Rod Craig welcomed guests, joined by Gail Tobin, Chair of our Economic Development Committee, and several EDC members.

A big thank you to everyone who joined us — and to the businesses that create jobs, invest in Hanover Park and keep our local economy moving!
