As we move into March, I want to extend a sincere thank‑you to everyone who came out to support the 25th Annual Hobe Sound Festival of the Arts. I loved seeing this year’s Poster and Artwork by our very own Dan Mackin. Despite the extremely cold weather this year, our community showed up in full force. An incredibly special shoutout goes to the artists, sponsors, and the many volunteers who helped make the event possible. Your dedication is what continues to make this festival one of the most treasured traditions in Hobe Sound.
We also had a wonderful time at our February Chamber Breakfast, where we gathered to “spread the love” and enjoy each other’s company at Harry & the Natives sponsored by Hobe Sound Country Club Kennels. The Breakfast had a strong turnout, again, and we heard from Martin County Supervisor of Elections Vickey Davis who updated us on the valuable information upcoming up this election year.
Our February Business After Hours event was equally memorable as we celebrated the one‑year anniversary of Cosmetic Skin & Laser, the generous sponsor of the evening. It was a fun night filled with energy, networking, and a chance to recognize a business that continues to grow and opened their business to our chamber community.
I want to remind everyone of an important upcoming event: the Hobe Sound Cleanup, taking place on Saturday, April 18th from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. at Harry’s. This is a wonderful opportunity to come together and help maintain the beauty of our town.
Thank you, as always, for your support, your involvement, and your dedication to helping Hobe Sound thrive. I look forward to seeing you at our March events!

President, Hobe Sound Chamber of Commerce,
