Did you know Super Bowl LXI is coming to Los Angeles in 2027? Right now, supplier opportunities are opening for small businesses, and there are only 12 days left to position your business for consideration.

If you’re serious about growth in the SGV, this is your opportunity to move from preparation to action.

Ready, Set, Certify is a hands-on, two-part workshop designed to help you complete your certification and begin your supplier application with live guidance.

Friday Night, February 20 | 5:00 PM – 7:00 PM

Certification Workshop
Complete your California Department of General Services certification step by step.

Saturday Morning, February 21 | 8:00 AM – 10:30 AM

Work through your supplier application while momentum is high and the deadline is still open.

This is a working session, not a lecture. Come prepared to make real progress.

What You Need to Bring

Helpful Resources

A capabilities statement will be needed to complete the supplier application, so we recommend reviewing the SoCal WINS resource in advance.

I’m excited to share a new benefit available to members of the Azusa Chamber of Commerce that many of you have been asking for.

For the first time, solo business owners and family-run businesses can now access group benefit rates, even if you don’t have traditional employees. This is an exclusive opportunity created specifically for our Chamber members to help you protect what you’re building while keeping costs manageable.

Here’s what’s available through this new program:

• Accident plans starting at $7.49/month
• Cancer plans starting at $11.80/month
• Hospital indemnity plans starting at $12.30/month
• Term life options with age-based rates
• Bilingual support available

This is a strong option for entrepreneurs, family businesses, and owner-operators who normally don’t qualify for group pricing but still want access to meaningful coverage and peace of mind.

We’re also hosting a free informational event where you can learn more, ask questions, and see if these plans are a fit for you.

Event Details
Wednesday, February 25
11:30 AM - 1:00PM
Your Pie
100 W Foothill Blvd, Azusa CA 91702

To enroll or ask questions, contact:
mtognoli@seasidebenefits.com
949.257.2114

Minimum of 10 members is needed to activate rates, so if this sounds like something you’ve been waiting for, I encourage you to RSVP early and help spread the word.

As always, our goal is to bring practical, meaningful benefits that help your business grow and stay protected. I hope you’ll join us and explore this new opportunity.

Warmly,
Jenny Bolivar
CEO
Azusa Chamber of Commerce
