"One of the core values of the Arlington Chamber is Community Engagement, which aligns with AT&T’s legacy of supporting programs that have an impact in the communities where our employees live and work. We want to do whatever we can to help prepare the next generation of business and technology leaders for Virginia, so our primary focus is on programs that prepare Virginia’s young people for the future. We also believe it’s important to consult with organizations like the Arlington Chamber to identify programs or initiatives that also can have an impact on the local economy. By working together, we can develop long-lasting relationships that benefit the community."
-Garrett McGuire, AT&T

"I found out early in my 40 years in business that the Chamber would play an integral part in the success of my company. The real estate business is all about networking and meeting people either through committee work, business-to-business functions, and all the many events they sponsor.
My Business Man of the Year award was a culmination of being involved and the Chamber supporting the small business person. Join – it works!" - Bill Buck, Buck & Associates
