We do BUSINESS!

We don’t Play; We do BUSINESS!

 

As I stated in my remarks at the Chambers Annual Banquet, YOUR chamber doesn’t play. We don’t have parades, host casino nights, or have events that are not conducive to helping your business!

On behalf of myself, and the entire Greater Port Arthur Chamber of Commerce Staff, I want to extend my deepest gratitude and appreciation to the 800 distinguished guests who attended our Annual Banquet. Your presence was not only a testament to your commitment to the growth and prosperity of our community but also a true reflection of the spirit of collaboration and mutual support that defines our region.

The Annual Banquet is a time for us to reflect on the progress we’ve made, the challenges we’ve faced, and the goals that still lie ahead. However, it is also an occasion to honor the individuals and organizations that help shape the future of Port Arthur. Each one of you, whether a long-time supporter, a new member, or a first-time attendee, plays an integral role in our collective success.

The sheer magnitude of 800 attendees at this year’s event speaks volumes about the vibrancy of our local business community. Your involvement signifies a shared vision for Port Arthur’s continued growth and the determination to make our region an even more thriving hub for innovation, opportunity, and prosperity. It’s your passion, energy, and dedication that keep Port Arthur moving forward, and for that, we are profoundly grateful.

It was incredibly inspiring to see so many familiar faces and to connect with so many new ones, all united in the common cause of building a stronger community. Whether you were there to support local businesses, learn about the latest developments, or simply celebrate the achievements of our region, your engagement was invaluable. Your presence helped make this year’s banquet a resounding success.

 

I also want to take a moment to acknowledge the incredible partnerships that were highlighted during the event. The strength of any community lies in its ability to collaborate, and it is through these partnerships—between businesses, civic leaders, and residents—that we are able to accomplish so much. Together, we are creating a future that reflects the shared values of hard work, resilience, and unity. The Greater Port Arthur Chamber of Commerce is more than just an organization, it reflects the incredible people who are dedicated to its mission. Each of you plays a vital role in shaping the future of Port Arthur, and for that, we are incredibly appreciative.
