Still at the FunnyBone, the Guilderland Chamber’s annual “State of the Town Forum,” where speakers addressed listeners, as pictured here, is being billed this year as an event for “meaningful dialogue, questions, and collaboration.”

GUILDERLAND — The chamber of commerce here is inviting the public to join members on Feb. 5 for an event billed as “Meet Your Representatives.”

The annual gathering at the FunnyBone Comedy Club in Crossgates Mall, which was billed in previous years as a “State of the Town Forum,” this year says business leaders, state officials, and town representatives will participate in “meaningful dialogue, questions, and collaboration.”

Invited officials include Congressman Paul Tonko, State Senator Patricia Fahy, Assemblywoman Gabriella Romero, Assemblyman Phil Steck, Albany County Executive Danial McCoy, Guilderland Supervisor Peter Barber, and Guilderland Schools Superintendent Marie Wiles.

“Events like this are at the heart of what we do at the Guilderland Chamber,” said the chamber’s director, Sandra Dollard, in a release announcing the event. “Providing our members and the wider community with access to their representatives ensures a more connected and informed Guilderland. Together, we can create a stronger, more vibrant future.”

Tickets, available through eventbrite, cost $10 for chamber members and $15 for nonmembers. The event runs from 8 to 10 a.m. on Feb. 5.
