Tonight's the night for the Portage and District Chamber of Commerce's Business Awards gala. Executive director Cindy McDonald shares her excitement.

"This is our opportunity to thank our business community and the great organizations that we have here in Portage, and give away all of our different awards," says McDonald. "It's really exciting to have an in-person event because last year, we had to go virtual."

She notes it's only their second in-person event in about 19 months, and they're expecting many people to support help the chamber.

"We'll be also celebrating our 135th anniversary at the same time because we haven't had an opportunity to do that with our Members as well," says McDonald. "So, It's going to be a great opportunity to really celebrate that at the same time."
