With all of the exciting news in the Valley lately, the Regional Chamber’s Annual Meeting luncheon promises to be a can’t-miss event. In addition to an update on the Chamber’s activities in 2009, the event will include a keynote address from YSU’s President Dr. David Sweet, who is retiring from the University this year, and our Annual Awards presentation. This year’s award recipients are:

What do the Chamber, Dr. Sweet and all of these award recipients have in common? All of their work in 2009 was “Building A Foundation For The Future.”
