Candidate Meet and Greet- Be Part of the Conversation Shaping Our Region’s Future

​Be Part of the Conversation Shaping Our Region’s Future

Mark your calendar for Tuesday, October 14 from 5:30 to 7:00 PM, as the Tri-City Regional Chamber of Commerce host a Candidate Meet & Greet at the Tri-Cities Business & Visitor Center (7130 W. Grandridge Blvd., Kennewick). This event brings together candidates vying for the cities of Kennewick, Pasco, Richland, West Richland, and the Ports of Benton and Kennewick in a unique, open-floor forum. It’s your chance to hear their visions, ask your pressing questions, and engage in a meaningful dialogue about where our region is headed into 2026 and beyond.

The Tri-City Regional Chamber is more than a convener—it is the voice of business, promoting regional prosperity through advocacy, leadership, networking, and innovative business programming. With nearly 900 member businesses, the Chamber strives to serve as a catalyst, convener, and champion for economic vitality across Benton and Franklin Counties.

Bringing candidates to the table is part of fulfilling that mission—ensuring decision-makers hear from the business community, local stakeholders, and committed residents alike.

Attendees can expect a casual but substantive format. There will be no formal program, just chance for your questions and conversations with the candidates. Whether you lead a local business, represent a nonprofit, or simply care about the direction of our cities, your voice and your questions matter.
​
By joining us, you become part of a regional conversation. Don’t let this moment pass. Come, engage, and help shape the next chapter in the Tri-Cities.

Reserve your spot now, and we look forward to seeing you on October 14.
