Team captains and members of the Total Resource Campaign (TRC) were treated to a lunch charged with exciting goals and prizes for those who net the most sponsors for 2011 Brownwood Area Chamber of Commerce events.
The keynote speaker was former Brownwood mayor Bert Massey (pictured above) who challenged the teams and told of how Brownwood “wouldn’t look the same today if it weren’t for the Chamber of Commerce and the Industrial Foundation’s early efforts.”
“I’m glad to see the spirit of Brownwood hasn’t changed,” stated Massey. “You are the hard core believers of what the Chamber of Commerce can do for the community.”
On the table are two iPads, cash rewards and a trip for the winning team to Las Vegas at the end of the campaign. Not only are the prizes important and exciting, but TRC enables companies to work with a menu type of sponsorship choices, enabling them to stay within their yearly their budget amounts, and it allows the members to work together to help promote the business community.
“Through TRC, we can pool together our resources to build a better stronger organization for our community, offering more programs and opportunities for our businesses,” stated Laura Terhune, Executive Director of the Brownwood Chamber of Commerce.
