MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT/CEO
THE YEAR OF SMALL BUSINESS has gotten off to a fantastic
start! We hosted our second monthly Small Business Industry
Spotlight panel on Financial Literacy and Taxes at Butler’s Court-
yard. This event was sponsored by our Five (5) Star Member,
Fairfield Inn & Suites League City. The delicious breakfast was
sponsored by our Four (4) Star Member, Chick-Fil-A league City
Parkway, our Centerpieces were sponsored by Ana’s Décor and
Design and Nerds To Go Computer Services was our table sponsor. This event
could not have been successful without our panelist, past Board of Directors Chair-
man, Bill Provenzano, current Board of Director Member, Kristi Trevino, and Galves-
ton County Tax Assessor/Collector, Cheryl Johnson. Board of Director Member,
Rolando Villarreal kept the audience engaged while he emceed the breakfast. I

Next, YOUR chamber held a jammed packed “Future of Education” Luncheon
with our education advocate, Senator Larry Taylor. This event was sponsored by
our Five (5) Star Member, UTMB, our Four (4) Star Member AMOCO Federal Credit
