We Invite the Public to Join Us for our Annual Meet the Candidates Night

Connecting voters with their future leaders is an annual tradition for the Irondequoit Chamber of Commerce. We invite all local candidates to meet directly with residents, giving our community a chance to build personal connections and learn more about each platform before heading to the polls in November. 

The event is free and open to the public but seats are limited due to space constrictions. RSVP is required and is first come, first serve.

What to Expect:

This is a service the ICC provides to the community each year. 

The ICC in no way endorses any political party and is not a political affiliate.
