Life is 10% what happens to you

Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you respond to it.” — Lou Holtz 

Thank you to everyone who came to the chamber membership meeting last Thursday. Lunch from Los Gabanos was yummy. The roundtable portion of the meeting is always very worthwhile. Connecting businesses and agencies with each other results in a healthier community. 

We are already starting to think about Little Shoppers (Dec. 14). We will schedule a workday to bring up all the “stuff” from the basement, add hot chocolate packages and candy to the mugs, etc. Stay tuned. Help is always appreciated. 

Many things are happening with our members.
