Thanks to our participating members in the Chamber's 2nd annual Commerce Carnival at the Lorton Spring Fling: Brain Injury Services, Casey Whitmarsh, State Farm Agent, Brian Gottlieb, Realtor Berkshire Hathaway Home Services/Penfed Realty, Inova, Montessori Kids Universe at Lorton Valley Station, and Tom Repczynski, Offit Kurman.


Carnival-style games and enticing prizes provided a win-win scenario for both Spring Fling attendees and member businesses. It was a fantastic opportunity to engage with the public in a relaxed and enjoyable setting. Participating Chamber members were able to showcase their products and services while connecting with potential customers on a personal level. 


We had a great time at the

Lorton Holiday Extravaganza!


Special thanks to Chamber members Zita Buky, Brian Gottlieb-Berkshire Hathaway Home Services PenFed Realty, Peter Weyland-Look.net, Tom Repczynski-Offit Kurman and Casey Whitmarsh-State Farm agent for helping out this year! We enjoyed sponsoring the Vendor Appreciation Breakfast for 190 small businesses, sponsoring a blood drive for Chamber member Inova, and hosting a Chamber booth for the more than 3,000 people who attended.

The Chamber booth was crowded most of the day and we enjoyed meeting potential new members as well as many from our community!

We were proud to sponsor a much-needed blood drive for Inova Blood Services. Thanks to all who signed up and donated blood!

As a Chamber, we welcome opportunities to meet potential new members and share the many benefits of a chamber membership.

1st Annual SFCC Commerce Carnival Success!

We had a great time engaging with the community at our first-ever Commerce Carnival at the Lorton Spring Fling. Despite the overcast skies, we had a nice turnout and some very happy prize winners! Special thanks to Brian Gottlieb of BHHS PenFed Realty, the Emma Jordon Kidz Fighting Cancer Foundation, the Metropolitan School of the Arts, and Tom Repczynski of Offit Kurman who all provided the 'prizes' and helped to man the booth. This was a unique opportunity to meet potential customers in a casual, fun atmosphere! Thank you for having us Lorton Spring Fling!

The South Fairfax Chamber was a proud participant in the Lorton Fall Festival at South County High School in September! The SFCC hosted a donation drive to restock the Lorton Community Action Center pantry and SFCC members, the Emma Jordon Kidz Fighting Cancer Foundation hosted a booth where kids could decorate their own pumpkin. SFCC member State Farm Agent Casey Whitmarsh was an overall event sponsor and Chamber member Trademasters was a sponsor of the Candy Cane Kids Fun Run. A great time was had by all!
