The New Path Forward We are well into 2018 and are having a great year so far! Your Chamber Board of Directors has been working diligently behind the scenes on the goals that we set for ourselves at the beginning of the year. One of those goals had to do with a possible expansion/addition to the Chamber building. In mid-April, we sent out a survey to you—our membership—asking a few questions about your involvement with the Chamber as well as your perception of our current building sufficiently meeting the needs of our business community. We received several responses and are very appreciative of those who took a few minutes to give us some thoughts and feedback. We are taking all of the responses and developing a plan to move forward. The overwhelming response was positive toward creating more and/or larger meeting space for our Chamber programs and meetings to be hosted as well as for the use by our business members. There was also recognition of our current building not being an adequate environment for our staff to work efficiently and most productively. Our Chamber has grown significantly over the years and has become a model for many area Chambers. Our facility has been reconfigured and modified to try to accommodate our growth but we feel it is time to make a little more of an investment into our building to maximize our programming potential and offer even more value to our members. We will keep you informed and updated in the coming weeks and months as our plans progress. We are excited to share these plans with you and look forward to adding more value to YOU, our business members! Theresa Mason MIG Realty Grapevine Chamber Chair
