From the Board President

Ike Ornelas

As I get ready to turn over the reigns of the Chamber Board to Nena Pitts, I want to reflect on the greatness that has occurred at the Chamber under my two-year term as Board President.

We are very blessed to have a great staff in Noemi Andrade and our Executive Director Juan Navejar. It is because of their dedication that we could accomplish so much. In the two-year period we were able to remodel the Chamber both inside and outside. The conference room took on a new look with a marble size conference table and executive chairs. We did away with the old carpet and added a tiled floor as well as add a new breakfast table with cabinets.

The outside has never looked better with the adding of a sprinkler system to go along with the landscaping and new facelift of the outside. We also resurfaced the parking lot and added parking spots along the backside of the Chamber.

Financially, the Chamber has never looked better. With Juan as our fiduciary, he has taken control to assure that Chamber operates under a sound financial institution with the assistance of a great board of directors.
