Golf Means Business

The Chamber is Facilitating Opportunity through the Game of Golf


The West Orange Chamber of Commerce (WOCC) with over 900 member businesses and organizations is the foremost business association in West Orange County.  The WOCC’s vision is to build partnerships, strong businesses and an unwavering commitment to the community by serving as the leading business advocate in Central Florida; making the WOCC a brand name that is synonymous with facilitating opportunity.


It has been said that the golf course is a great place to do business while facilitating opportunity and we believe this to be true. We are preparing for our final luncheon of the year, “Golf Means Business” presented by Health Central and in partnership with two PGA tours; Arnold Palmer’s Invitational at Bay Hill, The Children’s Miracle Network and the Central Florida Sports Commission. The Golf industry has a major impact in Central Florida and the West Orange Community. The WOCC has compiled a panel of golf experts that will enlighten us during the luncheon on how to grow your business from the business of golf. This luncheon is planned for Tuesday, October 11, 2011 at the DoubleTree by Hilton at the Entrance to Universal Orlando from 11:30am- 1:30pm.


No matter what category of business you have, the West Orange Chamber of Commerce will present you with a voice of experience and influence in West Orange County and Central Florida. Please click here for pricing and registration.
