CHAMBER HONORS THIS YEARS TOP BUSINESS & COMMUNITY LEADERS AT
Evening Event - Times to be Determined
Each year, the Chamber holds its annual award celebration honoring our top business leaders in the community. This event is called The Best of Plano. The awards presented include the ATHENA Award (top business woman), Small Business Owner of the Year, Business Executive of the Year and Fred Moses Minority Business Development Award. Last years recipients were Alice Hobbs; Richard Butterly, Ray Huffines and Maco Amoyo respectively. This year in addition to these awards, we are adding recognitions for the Plano Police Officer of the Year, Plano Fire Fighter of the Year and Plano ISD Teachers of the Year.
The theme is “SUPERHERO’S…In Our Midst.” These local leaders are hero’s within our community, businesses and families for their heart of service, dedication and commitment to helping make our city a better place to live and grow. To help make the evening more exciting, we will be welcoming Governor Rick Perry as our keynote speaker. This will all take place at the Plano Marriott at Legacy Town Center. Invitations will be going out at the beginning of August but for now… SAVE THE DATE for this “not to miss event”.

All submissions must be turned into the Chamber office no later than August 3, 2009. Winners will be announced on August 10, 2009.
