Greetings!  
 
The Chamber Dues & Optional Fees Worksheet that we sent out is not an invoice for your dues.  This is meant just as a planning tool, we will send an invoice when your dues are up for renewal. Thank you to those members who have used this opportunity to pay your 2010 dues early.
 
The following members have upgraded their membership level as Distinguished Investors with the Chamber. 
  • Fred Haas Toyota World, upgraded to Bronze Level
  • Backyard Paradise Pools, upgraded to Gold Level
Thank you both so much for your continued support. 
 
Don't forget to RSVP for the Wednesday Feb 3rd Chamber Luncheon at EMCID.  Call 281-354-0051 and leave a message or reply to this email if have not already reserved your seat.
