Letter from the Chair
Greetings everyone,
I hope that you have enjoyed the Summer months and are having a productive year.
 
Were you able to attend this month’s luncheon? “Business after LeBron” was the topic of discussion and the panelists did an amazing job covering the subject! In fact, Baker Mayfield  was among our esteemed panelists. Well, actually, it was Sam Pines, from ESPN Cleveland, wearing a Baker Mayfield jersey. Nevertheless, I’m sure everyone that attended agrees that it was a great program. Don’t worry, you have another opportunity to join in the fun, by planning now, to attend the Annual State of the City Business Update and Celebration! Not only will we learn about the exciting business growth and opportunities happening in our three surrounding communities, we will also be celebrating our Chamber’s 60th anniversary-with cake and all! 
 
Here are some fun facts from 1958-the year our chamber was established:
1.      President Eisenhower signed the National Aeronautics and Space Act, creating NASA
2.      Gunsmoke was the most popular T.V. show
3.      The top song was “At the Hop by Danny and the Juniors
4.      The price of a postage stamp was 4 cents
5.      The American Express Card was created
6.      World Series Champs-New York Yankees
 
 
Warm regards.
