2025 Walk to Washington a Huge Success
The Chamber train came back, bigger, better
After a five-year hiatus, the Walk to Washington made a triumphant return on Feb. 6 and 7, 2025. The event drew a crowd of more than 1,000 New Jersey business leaders for the chartered Amtrak train trip to Washington D.C. – including six gubernatorial candidates. Once in D.C., the group enjoyed a dinner reception and program honoring New Jersey’s Congressional delegation.

Once in our nation’s capital, the networking shifts from the train to a new destination – the historic and luxurious Omni Shoreham Hotel. The Walk to Washington's traditional sit-down dinner will be replaced by a lively and extended dinner-and-cocktail reception with a streamlined program honoring New Jersey’s Congressional delegation. Guests will enjoy amazing food, drinks and desserts, and get more time for valuable business networking. There’s another bonus: Since 2025 is a gubernatorial election year, we anticipate leading candidates will participate in the two-day event making the 2025 Walk to Washington a must-attend event of the year.
