75th anniversary for the Chamber
|
The Pleasanton Chamber of Commerce, one of the most engaging and successful chambers in the Bay Area, is celebrating its 75th anniversary in 2021. Beginning this month, the chamber will be commemorating the occasion with a variety of captivating stories, news articles, and reflections from community leaders.
“This gives us the opportunity to thank and remember our past leaders that were instrumental in guiding the chamber to continued success,” said Steve Van Dorn, President/CEO of the Pleasanton Chamber. “After all, the chamber would not be where it is today without the support of our members and our awesome community,” he said.

Mobile “Promise Pass” Incentivizes Spending at Nearly 100 Local Businesses
|
The pandemic may be waning, but local businesses are still teetering. To address this challenge, the East Bay cities of Dublin, Livermore, Pleasanton, San Ramon and the Town of Danville, have partnered with Visit Tri-Valley (VTV) to launch an unprecedented regional campaign to drive spending in local businesses. Dubbed “To Tri-Valley with Love,” the campaign asks residents and visitors alike to spend at least $25 per week at local businesses instead of online and in big-box stores.
Sweetening the deal, the cities have created a mobile Promise Pass that offers a slew of discounts at nearly 100 businesses, with new offers added regularly. The Promise Pass was created to inspire spending within the Tri-Valley community to help buoy local businesses to see them through the final stages of the global COVID-19 pandemic.
