Annual Banquet "Tailgate Party"
Chamber Kicked-Off 2010 to a great start!
 
The annual banquet was a success!!  We owe it all to you, our membership, for your support and participation.
 
The banquet committee worked hard to pull together the event with a new and different theme, in a new location.  It all went smoothly and the Yellow Rose Reception Hall was beautiful and a wonderful place to hold an event.  Please give Joe & Juanita Popowitz a call at (281) 354-0953 if you have questions about reserving the space for your next event.
 
Our food and beverages were provided by Valerie's team at Trigg's Catering Co.  We enjoyed the great service and meal and the ice cream & brownie bar was very popular! You can reach Valerie at (281) 540-2700 to inquire about their catering.
 
Susanne Kite pulled off another great list of auction items, we are so grateful to her for all her time and effort. Thank you to all of you who bid on auction items, your participation is very much appreciated.
 
For more about the evening, check out our page in the EMC Observer newspaper next week.
 
We hope have the pictures from the banquet in next week's E-Connections issue.
