The Market Shops, located at the entrance to Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort, will host the Walton Area Chamber of Commerce and Young Professionals of Walton County (YPWC) for a combined Business After Hours event on Thursday, September 9, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.

Members and non-members from both groups along with community members are invited to explore The Market Shops outdoor shopping center while enjoying live music by Sarah Anne and the Sunshine Band, as well as light bites and complimentary refreshments from The Market Shops participating merchants. Those attending will receive a punch card with a map of the lifestyle center outlining specific merchants to visit throughout the night. Guests will receive a stamp from each shop they visit on their pass card. Once the fully stamped card is returned to the check-in table, it will be entered into the drawing for various gift cards, baskets, special merchant products, and more provided by the merchants and participating Chamber members.

The Business After Hours event is free for Chamber and YPWC members and is $10 for non-members. For more information and to register for the event online, please visit http://www.waltonareachamber.com.
