The Los Alamitos Chamber of Commerce has announced that its annual Gala Fundraiser will be held on Jan. 16, 2020, at the “On the Greens” ballroom of the U.S. Navy Golf Course in Cypress.
The announcement comes after the Chamber revived the long dormant “Installation and Awards Gala” last January following a long absence.
Chamber officials said then that they would evaluate the results before deciding on whether to fully renew the tradition.
Nesi Stewart, Incoming Chairwoman, said indeed they did find that the last year’s gala was a tremendous success.
“The Los Alamitos Area Chamber has been in existence for many years, and that is something to be proud of. Once again, this year the chamber is hosting a gala to celebrate our accomplishments, and the dedication of our officers and members,” she said.
“Our membership consists of individual business owners, small and medium size businesses, as well as large corporations. Our members are critical to the success of the chamber and we are grateful for each one of them. We look forward to your participation in our 2020 Gala, celebrating the Los Alamitos Chamber, the inauguration of officers, and the great city we are a part of,” said Stewart.
In addition to a silent auction and other fundraising elements, the Chamber also used the Gala to announce several awards, including Citizen of the Year, Community Partner (nonprofit) of the Year, and Economic Impact of the Year.
Also, the Chamber uses the occasion to install new officers for the year.
Chamber members have already been polled regarding the awards, said Chamber administrator Toni Hauger. She also said the Chamber is accepting items for its silent auction and that tickets and sponsorships are now available for purchase on the Chamber’s website.
