For the sixth time, the business community came together on August 24, 2022, at the Fredericksburg Expo Center, at 2371 Carl D. Silver Parkway, to honor and thank the region's first responders for their contributions to public safety.
With over 300 first responders and community members attending the event, Lt. Governor Winsome Earle-Sears provided the keynote address. She told those gathered that when they see footage of people smashing windows or burning businesses in other areas--and get the feeling that the world has turned upside down--they may wonder: "Is this the country I'm fighting for, is it worth it? I'm going to tell you, it's worth it, America is worth fighting for," she said. "What you do, first responders is not in vain. We see it and we're glad you're there because when you are running toward the violence, toward the fire, and we're running the other way."

Cort Smith of SmithWorx Office Furniture and David Fraser of Fraser Wood Elements met at a Chamber event early this year. As they began discussing their businesses with each other, they realized they had an overlap in their business models and similar mottos in Business; customer service and attention to detail. A few weeks after meeting, Smith presented Fraser and his team with a custom conference table project, and Fraser jumped at the opportunity to help Smith and the SmithWorx team.
