On Friday, April 12, 2024, we had our Spring New Member Breakfast at The Grande of Creve Coeur.

We are grateful to The Grande at Creve Coeur for sponsoring and hosting our breakfast to welcome our new members.

Dr. Paul Hyland, President of the Chamber Board of Directors, brought our meeting to order and welcomed our new members to the Chamber. We also heard encouraging and supportive words from our city leaders, Mayor Robert Hoffman from Creve Coeur and Mayor Pro Tem Missy Waldman from Olivette.

As is the custom at this event, Dr. Hyland invited our new members to introduce themselves and their business. Those present are listed below:

• Karlos Bledsoe, Sr. - Focal Point Coaching

Next Allen Burnett, VP of Membership, shared some helpful insights to our new members and how they can take advantage of their Chamber Membership. Allen also introduced them to our Ambassadors who are here to help them as they start their membership. Then Allen invited Tom Lancia, Executive Director of the Chamber, to share about upcoming opportunities, and benefits that come with their membership.

Finally, we took time to meet other members in the room and take a New Member Photo.
