League City, TX—Local Chambers from across the state of Texas convened Wednesday, June 20, 2017 for the Texas Chamber of Commerce Executives (TCCE) Annual Excellence Awards. The awards honor organizations for exceptional efforts in marketing, communications and media outreach.
The Alice Parks and Recreation have a four-day celebration lined up to help celebrate America’s birthday beginning Saturday July 1st at Veterans Plaza Park.
Congratulations goes out to our Chamber staff for their recent awards. We are blessed to have two talented people working for us. The recent awards are proof of the caliber of people we have at the Chamber.
It’s hurricane season and each year South Texas has some kind of threat from Mother Nature. We already had a tropical storm in the Gulf of Mexico that went north. While we are inland and hurricanes rarely affect us, we still have to take some kind of action to protect our home and personal belonging for tropical force winds and rain. Have you given thought about your business or company in case of a storm?
The Ambassadors updated their By-Laws during their June meeting and were approved by the board of directors. New changes were made to help us operate more efficiently. Thanks to all those Ambassadors who attended the meeting.
Longer days, warmer weather, family trips – these are just a few of the benefits of summer. While it may be tempting to “leave it all behind” this season, don’t forget about your long-term financial goals.
BBB tips for selecting and installing a home security alarm system
The number of consumers searching home security system dealers continues to increase year to year, according to Better Business Bureau. Inquiries are especially high during the summer months, when families are planning their summer vacations and looking for ways to avoid leaving their home vulnerable to thieves.
Members of the Board of Directors and Alice Ambassadors attended a Meet and Greet to welcome new Alice ISD Superintendent Dr. Alma Charles. Dr. Charles assumed her role as AISD Superintendent on June 1st.
Congressional Visit
U.S. Congressman Filemon Vela made a stop in Alice to meet with local officials regarding the U.S. budget. Concerns regarding local entities were discussed by those who would have grave affects from the budget cuts.
