On Friday morning, October 7, 2022 we had our Fall New Member Breakfast at the Holiday Inn in Creve Coeur.

We are grateful to the Holiday Inn St. Louis-Creve Coeur for Sponsoring, Hosting, and Catering our breakfast to welcome our new members.

Allen Burnett, President of the Chamber Board of Directors, brought our meeting to order. After saying the Pledge of Allegiance together we heard some encouraging and supportive words from Mayor Maxine Weil from the City of Olivette and Mayor Robert Hoffman from the City of Creve Coeur. We were also joined by Councilwoman Missy Waldman from the City of Olivette and Mark Perkins, the City Administrator from Creve Coeur.

Next Larry Tessler, Chamber Board Member and VP of Membership, welcomed our new members and introduced them to our Ambassadors. Larry also shared some helpful insights on how to take advantage of our Chamber membership. Then Larry invited Tom Lancia, Executive Director of the Chamber, to share about some upcoming opportunities and other benefits that come with their membership.

Finally, we took time to meet other members in the room and took a New Member Photo. Click Here to view All the pictures taken that morning by Kevin McCarty with McCarty Photography.
