Roane Alliance Gala is Friday, June 18, 2021

Please join us for a night of Hollywood Glamour on Friday June 18, 2021 as we celebrate 20 years for the Roane Alliance! The event will be held at The Barn at Maple Creek in Kingston, beginning at 6pm.

We are so excited to be able to finally hold our annual event and especially since the Roane Alliance is now 20!  Join us as we celebrate not only the past 20+ years but also those who helped to make it happen.  We will have some very special guests to honor and recognize their vision and hard work that brought together the Roane Chamber, Industrial Development Board and Tourism Council to help bring economic prosperity to Roane County and its citizens.

Having cancelled last year's event, we are so grateful to those sponsors who donated their sponsorship last year.  We are calling them our Gala Champions and they are so much more than that!  Without their contribution, the Roane Alliance would not have been able to keep our staff and programs in tact through fiscal year 2020.  And even more amazing is their dedication to the Roane Alliance, as we welcome them back this year as  2021 Gala Sponsors - and many of them are Title!  Be sure to thank them for their support of economic development in Roane County!

The Roane Alliance Gala is a night we set aside to celebrate what makes Roane County special and accomplishments made towards a more prosperous future for our citizens.  Now there is even more to celebrate as we combine the annual Gala with the annual Roane Chamber Awards Banquet.

This will also be the primary annual fundraiser for both the Roane Alliance and the Chamber.  The money raised goes towards funding programs and efforts that help increase economic prosperity in Roane County.   Some of those programs/efforts include Education Matters; Shop Roane; ThreeStar; and recruiting industry, businesses and visitors through marketing and building relationships.

This annual event is also the perfect night for networking and relationship-building locally, regionally and state-wide as many business owners, local leaders and elected officials join in the celebration.  So won't you join us at the next Roane Alliance Gala, and help us celebrate Roane County, its people and its successes.

To keep up with any last-minute details please like and follow The Roane Alliance Facebook page.  For sponsorship information or to reserve a table or tickets please contact us at RSVP@roanealliance.org or 865-376-2093 ext  200.  This event also includes an auction and if you would like to donate to our live or silent auctions please let us know.   In 2021 we held our first ever online auction, which was a success.  We plan to hold that again virtually, and hold the live auction at the event.  Stay tuned for the next online auction date by following our Facebook page.
