A Message from Your Chamber CEO
Recently, I had the opportunity to attend the Texas Chamber of Commerce Executives Conference in Bryan- College Station. Besides the educational, motivational and relevant topic programming, the annual statewide media awards are presented. Due to the work and efforts of your Board and our wonderful members, your Grapevine
Chamber of Commerce has grown and now falls into the same category as the largest chambers in Texas including Austin, Dallas, Fort Worth, Irving and the Houston Partnership, among many others. What that means is that our programs, products and services are being judged against Chambers that have budgets of $1 million and up. That is a great challenge to continue to improve what we do, with the ultimate goal provided by our Board to become the BEST Chamber!
