ALEXANDRIA, VA-The Chamber ALX has released its inaugural 40 Over 40 honorees list. For years, the Chamber has honored 40 under 40 annually with a big celebration, and the older members of the community kept asking when it would be their turn.

“We finally decided to do it,” Chamber ALX CEO Joe Haggarty told Zebra.  “And there were SO many nominations.  It was hard to choose just 40.”
