      Chamber of Commerce 
      As 
        we enter in to another New Year for the Tempe Chamber of Commerce, it 
        is both a pleasure and honor to serve as Chairman of the Board. The information 
        contained in this publication will help provide an overview to the exciting 
        City of Tempe and listings of current member in the Tempe Chamber.  
        My first exposure to the Tempe Chamber was in the early eighties when 
        I was at the Tempe Mission Palms. Four years ago, I came back to Tempe 
        as the general manger for the Holiday Inn Phoenix-Tempe/ASU. At that time, 
        I made a commitment to the Tempe Chamber. I hit the ground-running and 
        have not looked back since. It’s been a great opportunity to meet 
        so many people who work together for a common goal – to make Tempe 
        the best place to live, work and play. Now, it is my goal to step into 
        the shoes of previous chairpersons and continue the success of the Chamber 
        as an advocate for businesses in the community. I look forward to an exciting 
        year. 
      We all have a vested interest in 
        Tempe and the Chamber is here to ensure the economic vitality of our community. 
        Partnerships with the City, Arizona State University and other organizations 
        that shape this community is vital and we will continue to foster these 
        special relationships. Tempe has many changes going on now. We promise 
        to work close with the city Government to ensure a smooth transition and 
        continue the success of our community. We will continue to work close 
        with Dr. Michael Crow and his team; the new superintendents of Tempe Union 
        High School District and Tempe Elementary School District and continue 
        with Dr. Maria Menconi at the Kyrene School District. A strong education 
        foundation leads to a vibrant community with rewarding jobs, a thriving 
        business climate and an overall increase in quality of life.  
      The Tempe Chamber will continue 
        to work hard to bring many opportunities to your business from sponsorships, 
        networking, advocacy and education. We stand behind our tagline, “Your 
        Success is our Business.” We want you to get involved and meet contacts 
        that will enhance your business goals. On the following pages of this 
        directory, you will see the new committee chairs. This group of individuals 
        will help the Chamber become a leader by developing business and educational 
        groundwork, host various special events and provide you with programs 
        and services that will enhance your bottom line. Our committees have a 
        direct impact on the business community and so can you. Please take the 
        time to join a committee that interests you because together we are strong. 
        I encourage all of you to get involved.
