ABOUT OUR NETWORK

Members are professional business persons that desire to promote their different lines of business and to continuously develop their character and skills.
VGBN meets twice monthly on the 2nd and 4th Thursdays (except Thanksgiving). The 2nd Thursday meeting is held in Oxford at the Granville County Chamber of Commerce office. The 4th Thursday meeting is held in Henderson at the Henderson Vance Chamber of Commerce. Meetings begin at 7:30 AM with 15 minutes of open networking.
