El Monte/South El Monte Chamber of Commerce











Today the EM/SEM Chamber of Commerce and Downtown El Monte Business Association held their annual Installation Dinner at Grace T. Black Auditorium.


Dinner was provided by Edward's Steakhouse in El Monte. Sooooo good! Guests had choice of Prime Rib or Herb Roasted Chicken. Great time with local business leaders, El Monte Council members, El Monte Union HS District Board of Education and Superintendent Salerno.



Here are some pictures from the event:

Business of the year was: Credit Union of Southern California, www.wafcu.or, El Monte location. Branch Manager Caesar Mayor (and El Monte Rotarian!) received the award. On my left is Mr. Ernest Villegas of Villegas Realty and Downtown El Monte Business Association Board Member.
The young lady pictured with the plaque is Sam's Club El Monte Store Manager, Becky Jewett. Sam's Club received the ____ Award. I don't know the exact name of award because I don't have the program with me but Sam's received a community-active business award. Please sign up for a Sam's Club membership if you have not done so already. Sam's Club is a great economic stimulator for the area and a proud sponsore of local charities, schools and sports. There store is located at: - http://www.samsclub.com/
4901 N Santa Anita Avenue, El Monte - (626) 575-0973.
Of course, the EM/SEM Queen and Court will there to support the local Chamber. Good job Girls!
The EM/SEM Chamber and DEMBA boards, respectfully, work really hard to help the community spur economic activity and help business, not to mention in supporting local charities, schools and sports. So, if you are reading this and are a business owner in EM/SEM please consider become a member of either organizations and start playing a role in shaping EM/SEM be a shining city for all of the San Gabriel Valley.
