Rockwall Chamber participates in Texas Chamber of Commerce Week, Oct 20-24

ROCKWALL, TX (October 9, 2014) During the week of October 20-24 communities across the state of Texas will recognize Chamber of Commerce Week. This week is a time set aside to celebrate the hard work and accomplishments of chambers of commerce and the communities they represent. The proclamation of the week issued by Governor Rick Perry states, “…I encourage all Texans to recognize the vital and constructive accomplishments of these organizations, which are crucial to the development and growth of strong communities throughout our great state.”

Although their work is often done “behind the scenes,” chamber of commerce staff and volunteers are routinely involved in many areas of the community that make it great. These may include business development, business recruitment, education and workforce development, community development and beautification among others. Whatever the area, the chamber of commerce is continuously working to help create opportunities for their community to thrive and a place where people want to live, work and play.

“We are proud to participate in Texas Chamber of Commerce Week,” said Dana Macalik, President of Rockwall Area Chamber of Commerce. “Our Chamber has played a significant role in welcoming new businesses to our community and serving as an important resource for businesses large and small.”

In recognition of this year’s celebration, the Rockwall Area Chamber of Commerce will provide several opportunities for business people and community members to connect. Join them as they kick off Chamber of Commerce week:
