As we prepare for the 2026 season, we are excited to announce the return of the series with an enhanced and more interactive Town Hall-style format titled the “2026 TGIF Legislative Town Hall Series.” These sessions will provide meaningful opportunities for dialogue between elected officials, business leaders, and community stakeholders on legislative priorities, economic development, and issues impacting the Best Southwest region.

The 2026 schedule includes:

  • August 7 – Senator Royce West
  • August 14 – Representative Yvonne Davis
  • August 21 – Representative Toni Rose
  • August 28 – Representative Aicha Davis

We are also pleased to continue our partnership with Methodist Charlton Medical Center as the host venue for the series.

Due to overwhelming interest, the series sold out last year, reinforcing the strong demand and regional impact of these events. Sponsorship remains the best opportunity to secure seating and gain visibility among influential community and business leaders throughout the region. Currently the only sponsorship packages available are Chairman’s Circle – Gold and Silver.

Gold Level – $1,000 – Reserved seats for 4 at each breakfast and recognition from podium.
Silver Level –  $750 – Reserved seats for 2 at each breakfast. Recognition from podium.

Please contact Amanda Skinner at director@bestsouthwest.org if your company is interested in securing one of these levels. Registration for complimentary seats, if any are available, will open on August 1.

Thank you to the following committed sponsors;
