Planner Spotlight : Alaska Chamber
The Alaska Chamber hosted their Fall Forum in the newly updated convention center . With an agenda full of board meetings , presentations , panel discussions , and breakout sessions , the Chamber ’ s 250 delegates were able to utilize the unique spaces throughout the entire venue . When it was time for lunch , chartered catamarans picked up attendees at Crescent Harbor , conveniently situated next door to Harrigan Centennial Hall ’ s waterfront location . Attendees ate their gourmet boxed lunches on the Sitka Sound alongside bubble feeding humpback whales . Additionally , Harrigan Centennial Hall ’ s central location gave Alaska Chamber attendees ample access to downtown shops , nearby marinas , and comfortable , highend lodging — all only a short walk away .
