Thank you Sponsors! Thank you Donors! Thank you Guests!
There’s still
a buzz about the great time we had at our annual President’s Dinner &
Chamber Celebration a couple of weeks ago.
Not only did we have a great time, it was a successful revenue
generator. The chamber depends heavily
on its non-dues income in order to make membership affordable to all businesses
– basic dues are less than $20 a month.
It is the generosity of our sponsors and donating businesses that make our
many programs and activities possible.
On behalf of
the board of directors, I want to publicly thank this year’s President’s Dinner
sponsors: Presidential Sponsors, UW
Medicine Valley Medical Center and Fred Meyer; Puget Sound Energy, Yarrow Bay, Claffey’s
Painting, Maple Valley Muffler & Auto Repair, Frankie’s Pizza, VOICE of the
Valley, MultiCare, RE/MAX Danielle Bricker, DaVine Coffee & Wine Bar,
Junior Junction Day School, Tahoma School District, and Drs. Bennion Maple
Valley Vision Clinic.
The auction

goods and services offered by our members and associates. Many thanks to: Allstate The Jenson Agency @
