Celebrate Leadership Arlington's 10th Anniversary!

The 10th anniversary year began July 1, 2007. In 1998 Leadership Arlington set out with the mission to enlighten, inspire and connect leaders to strengthen the Arlington community.

An initiative of the Arlington Chamber of Commerce we were launched as a separate 501 (c) (3). 10 years later Leadership Arlington represents 350 organizations and has 400 members in our community.

Leadership Arlington is your center for leadership. We look forward to celebrating the 10th anniversary with you!

We hope you will join us in celebrating the 10 year anniversary at an upcoming event. Click here for more information.

In honor of our tenth anniversary, Leadership Arlington is asking the membership to reconfirm their commitment to the community by joining and pledging 10 good deeds.

The 10 good deeds may represent "Time, Talent or Treasure". This is a wonderful time to reflect on the impact 400 members can make in the community. Just imagine...3,500 good deeds happening in our community. What an impact Leadership Arlington can make! Members of the 10 year anniversary committee will be calling you to tell you more about this initiative.
