Each month as I prepare the monthly letter to the Chamber members, I attempt to provide the message that the Chamber CAN and WILL help you and your business in many different ways, if you allow it do to so. My personal experiences have taught me that our Chamber dues and involvement are well worth the investment. Get involved. I know that at first, it may seem that it is difficult to get involved, but I assure you, everyone on this Chamber Staff and our Board is willing and prepared to help you and your business take that next step. Just let us know what we can do. 
 
A prime example of the opportunities the Chamber offer was the Golf Classic that wrapped up on May 7th. I had the great pleasure of playing with the Oncor team. While our scorecard wasn't at the top of the leader board (primarily my fault!), I was able to spend 18 holes with contacts that were made through the Chamber. Again, through the Chamber and the opportunities that the Chamber presents, the relationships that are developed become very meaningful both professionally and personally. Thanks to everyone that played, volunteered and sponsored the annual Golf Classic. It was a fantastic day on all fronts. I'd also like to give a special thanks to the Chamber Staff for once again coordinating a great event. 
 
ARE YOU UP TO THE CHALLENGE? By now, I hope you have heard or seen that the GAMES of Grand Prairie are May 22nd at Loyd Park. This is my personal favorite event of the year for many reasons.  If you need more information on the exciting day of competition, please let us know. Last year, we had a great turnout and this year's event should be bigger and more competitive than last year.
