It is not uncommon for the Mount Vernon-Lee Chamber of Commerce to receive phone calls from people looking for local businesses.  We are happy to provide referrals to businesses that are connected to our communities, knowing that the person will receive great service at a fair price.

The annual PrimeTime Business Expo on Tuesday, October 23, 7:00 to 9:00 pm, is a good opportunity for the community to meet local businesses one-on-one and get to know the business people who are your neighbors in the greater South Alexandria area.

The Knights of Columbus Hall at 8592 Richmond Highway (next to the Engleside Post Office), will be transformed into “Main Street” where you can take a stroll and meet great local businesses.
