The Bolingbrook Chamber of Commerce & Industry

Volume 54      NOVEMBER  1999


Dear Members:

     Well here it is, November 1st.  Before you know it we'll all be munching on turkey, Christmas shopping, preparing for the last New Year's Eve of the century and looking forward to Spring.  This past Spring and Summer have been good to the Chamber.  Since last May we have increased our membership by 32 new businesses. 
     Mayor Claar and the LDC have done a tremendous job bringing new business to Bolingbrook.  The Chamber Board and the Ambassadors  have  done a fantastic job signing up new members.  I would like to thank each of you for all you have done to help make the Chamber as successful as it is.  Many of you are out there recruiting new businesses for us and we want you to know how much we appreciate it.
     Thank you to all our Night Golf sponsors for your support.  The next opportunity we have for your business is the Santa House Sponsorships.  The success of  any Chamber program is only as good as the support  it gets.
     One Chamber goals is to create a new event, something different and exciting, one that would grow with the Chamber.  If you have an unusual event idea, we would love to hear from you.  Contact our Ways and Means chairman, Rick Morales at LaSalle Bank, 708-301-4500.

Sincerely,


Peg Kenyon
Executive Director
