A Note from Michael

Happy 4th of July! We live in an amazing country, don't we? I'm so thankful for the freedoms we have!

We have another great month lined up for you, especially our monthly lunch speaker and the lunch-n-learn. Be sure to check them out!

I'll be out of the office for part of the month for training but you can count on staff to continue taking care of you!

Business of the Month
Gloria Young Brody

Gloria joined the Chamber for her business Arbonne International in 2014.
She immediately became involved as a Chamber Ambassador and a regular attendee of the "Make a Connection" networking group. She has generously donated her help and time at many of the Chamber events. She has helped direct runners at the Freedom 5K and the Sunset Santa 5K and has volunteered at the Annual Golf Classic and the Taste & Trade of Rowlett.
