REDWOOD CITY, CA - August 31, 2006 ­ Wow! Your Chamber is definitely on a roll. Let's take a quick look back since our annual dinner in January. We continue to be the third largest Chamber in the Bay area having signed up 170 new members so far this year. The 37th Annual Progress Seminar in April was the place to be for the folks who make it all happen in San Mateo County. For the eighth consecutive year the Seminar was a sellout. The Wells Fargo Benefit Golf Tournament was once
again a resounding success generating $34,000 for Kainos Home and Training Center. May also found us holding our Business Mixer at the North Fair Oaks Community Center co-hosted by members of the Chamber¹s Latino Outreach Committee. June started with the graduation of our 18th year class of
Leadership Redwood City/Belmont/San Carlos. This exciting program has now seen more than 500 graduates.

And as we take a look ahead; Back from summer break, we resume our monthly Membership Mixers at Hiller Aviation Museum, Wednesday, September 20. And that same morning, join us at the Sequoia Club for Good Morning Redwood City. And September will see 40 participants (another sold out class)
kickoff this year¹s Leadership Class. October starts with guaranteed fun as our golfers take the course on October 2 for the Chamber¹s Annual Invitational Golf Tournament. And join us October 18 for a county wide membership mixer at the San Mateo County History Museum and a great opportunity to see the progress being made in the revitalization of Redwood City downtown. And if that isn¹t enough, we have a terrific program on Managing Change at Oracle on October 23. I hope to see you at many of these events. For details on any of them, just call the Chamber at 364-1722.
