Economic Forecast

At the Chamber's 2010 Economic Forecast event, economists from area universities made predictions about six different economic indicators for 2011. For each indicator, the economist whose prediction comes closest at the end of the year will receive $2,000 for their university. Chamber members who attended the event also made predictions, and the member who made the closest predictions will win a two-night spa getaway donated by the Four Seasons, including dinner at TRIO.
