Wake Up Alexandria!Wake Up Alexandria is an informative one-hour social networking event held the 1st and 3rd Friday of every month. Each event is sponsored by a different Chamber member at their location. A dollar gets you in the door (public and non-Chamber members welcome). All members may give a brief announcement about their business or an upcoming event. All dollars collected are donated to a local non-profit.

Pot of Gold
The Pot of Gold drawing is a highly anticipated part of our Wake Up Alexandria event. The Pot of Gold is generously sponsored by Chamber members who donate business items, discounted services or gift certificates. Sponsors of the Pot of Gold are promoted through email blasts, displayed at the event, published on the Chamber website and listed in a press release when the Pot of Gold is won. If you are interested in being a sponsor contact Jess Ptacek at 320-763-3161 or jess@alexandriamn.org.
“I always try and stick around just in case Heartland Orthopedic Specialists is drawn for the Pot of Gold. When I was the President of the Chamber of Commerce I was only lucky enough to draw a winner one time at the last Wake Up Alexandria I was president over. With over 600 members in the Chamber of Commerce you know the odds are actually pretty good of having a winner. One of the best parts is you can feel how happy everyone in the room is for a winner to be drawn. The support from local businesses in support of the Pot of Gold is tremendous. We will utilize the donations to help promote Heartland Orthopedic Specialists externally along with reward staff internally.”
