It was a wonderful evening with chamber friends and members, as the Kern County Hispanic Chamber of Commerce hosted a membership appreciation business mixer at The Nile during the holiday season. As KCHCC has done in the years past, gifts at the door where collected in an effort to bring holiday spirit to the less fortunate children in our community. Numerous toys were donated by the membership and monetary donations exceeded the chambers expectations. The toys and donations were distributed equally to the organizations in the community who hosted toy drives. Thank you to our membership for their contribution.

Nearly 100 people attended the chamber’s annual General Membership meeting and business mixer in November. The meeting was held at the Double Tree Hotel located at 3100 Camino Del Rio Court. An excellent presentation of a variety of appetizers, desserts and refreshments were served all catered by the Double Tree.
Chairman of the Board Joe Jimenez facilitated the meeting and extended a warm welcome to everyone. He introduced the members of the Board of Directors that were present and introduced Todd Simons, Director of Sales and Marketing of Double Tree. Simmons also welcomed everyone, introduced his staff, and spoke of their many hotel accommodations and services. Jimenez then introduced Ramona Herrera, the incoming Chair for 2010 who in turn announced the Board of Directors for 2010.

 

It was all fun and golf, as the popular Kern County Hispanic Chamber of Commerce Golf Tournament returned this year. The event was held at the Sundale Country Club and over twenty-five teams participated. Everyone had a great time, food and drinks were excellent and the weather couldn’t have been better. Proceeds from the tournament go towards the business and membership services of the chamber.
