Greenbrier Valley EDC Announces the Return of the Annual Dinner 

June 2, 2022

We hosted our last annual dinner in June of 2019.  And then we took a two year hiatus – I’m sure I don’t have to tell you why.  We are happy to announce the return of this annual event. 

We hope you will join us for an evening of networking and celebration on Thursday, July 28, 2022, at the Schoolhouse Hotel in White Sulphur Springs. 

Over these last three years, we’ve seen a lot of changes – in our economy, in our communities, and within our own organization. We are excited to gather again to celebrate the opportunities in the Greenbrier Valley.  

At our last annual dinner in 2019, Dr. John Deskins, Director of the WVU Bureau of Business and Economics Research, presented the Greenbrier Valley’s first Economic Outlook Report. It seems appropriate to bring Dr. Deskins back for an updated report and analysis of the regional and state economic trends as we move forward from the pandemic. 

The Schoolhouse Hotel was chosen as our venue, as its one example of the great momentum in our area and in economic development since we last met. We know you’ll be impressed with the space, the food, and the hospitality.   

Celebrate businesses 

This time is not only for you to catch up with businesses and partners and think about what’s next for the region, but to help celebrate these businesses that have survived, and thrived, in spite of the craziness of the last few years.
