On July 17th approximately 350 members registered from chambers across Northwest Indiana (NWI) gathered at the US Steel Yard Stadium for an exciting evening of networking and baseball. Led by the Crossroads Chamber, the event brought together business professionals from 13 chambers across the region, making it a landmark gathering for fostering business-to-business connections.
This first-of-its-kind event saw members from Cedar Lake to Michigan City come together to enjoy a classic baseball game, share meals, and build meaningful relationships.
