CHAMBER VIEW
A Time to Give Thanks
A great chamber is the foundation of a great
region. But a chamber of commerce can’t thrive
without the strength of its members. In the spirit of
Thanksgiving, we would like to take an opportunity to
express our gratitude to our members. We are proud
of the programs and services we provide, and all of
it is made possible through your engagement and
support.
Thank you to the volunteers who participate in our
various committees, and thank you to those of you
who attended our advocacy programs – Cap-to-Cap
and State Legislative Summit – it is because of
you that the Sacramento Metro Chamber is able to
advocate for a strong business climate in our region.
Our Study Mission to Austin had the highest number
of attendees, ever, and we’ve had amazing turnout at
our monthly power lunches this year, as well as our
Metro Mixers and Referral Round Tables. We thank
you for helping us make these events successful.
The networking and new business opportunities they
provide are invaluable to many of our members.
If you have been looking for a way to get
engaged, we always welcome new members to our
committees and still have a few events planned this
year, including the 2017 State of Sacramento County,
a Referral Round Table, two Power Lunches, and our
Holiday Mixer.
Each year, we ask our members to give thanks
to those in our community who are leading the
charge in shaping our region by nominating them
for our Annual Dinner. Categories range from
Volunteer of the Year and Small Business of the
Year, to Sacramentan of the Year, Businessman
and Businesswoman of the Year and more. We
will honor this year’s winners at our 123rd Annual
Dinner & Business Awards on Friday, January 26th.
Registration for Annual Dinner will open this month,
so mark your calendar, and don’t delay in getting your
ticket!
