December 2012 Newsletter

President’s Message Well, this message is bitter-sweet to write, because it is my last message as President of the Chamber. Being President was a huge honor for me. The mechanics of the Chamber are run by Tish, Jesica and Norma, so it wasn’t like I had to do anything monumental, but the position does involve you in most of the decision making. Our next big event will be the President’s Lunch in January. We will recognize some of the great people that made this year possible. We have the award for...

November Chamber Update

President’s Message First, I would like to take a moment to talk about how much all of us are going to miss Butch Hulse.  Butch was a good friend to the Chamber and the City ofBlackfoot.  He was always available to answer questions or help out with any project we had going on.  I certainly did not talk to Butch everyday, but I knew I could if I needed to.  Butch is one of the reasons that I am involved with the Chamber now.  I joined the Chamber when I bought my business several years ago thinking that...

President’s Message As I look at the calendar, and how fast we are advancing the pages, it makes me think about all of the activities and events the Chamber has been involved in. We have had the same events for several years now. That is not necessarily a bad thing, but maybe we need to expand our horizons as an organization. You might say that is a vision, but making it happen is another thing. We have a great organization with over 275 members. All members are not actively involved physically with...

September Chamber Update

       Presidents Message By the time you read this article in the September newsletter, I will have already consumed more food than should be allowed at the Eastern Idaho State Fair.  The very first thing  I have is an Indian Taco.  That is pretty much a tradition.   I am usually pretty good at trying new food at the fair, but 1 fried twinkie, and 1 deep fried oreo is all I could handle of those.  My repeat favorites are the Hansen Hoagies, scone nuggets, potato ice cream, a piece of the good pie from...

August 2012 Chamber Update

Shirley Brumfield Presidents Message  August 2012   The first thing I want to comment on was the Fireworks Display we had on the 4th.    I don’t know how all of you feel about fireworks but 12 minutes is just the right amount of time.    Although they are beautiful, longer than that and they all start to look the same.   I am so pleased the Chamber is able to put this celebration on every year.    It looked like by the traffic, we had an extremely large crowd, too.   Except for the extreme...
