The Raeford-Hoke Economic Outlook Dinner is back and will be hosted at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday, August 18.
The event will take place at the Robert A. Wright Hoke County Agricultural Center. Dinner will be provided by Logan’s Roadhouse, with guest speaker Sheriff Roderick Virgil in attendance.
“This hasn’t happened since COVID-19, so we’re hoping to bring it back full force,” said Chamber of Commerce Executive Director, Liz McNeill. “We’re having the Sheriff coming this year to speak and give updates on what he’s been doing and what led him to becoming the Sheriff and what he sees happening in the future.”
The Economic Outlook Dinner is a great networking opportunity for the community to connect with one another and get to know other business owners in and around Hoke County.
Tickets can be purchased for $10 a person.
The project, named Camden Commons, features a sprawling mixed-use development campus ready-made for new business at the intersection of Camden and Rockfish Roads. A Super Target store has been announced as one of the anchor tenants on the site.
