The Pasadena Chamber of Commerce celebrates 125 years of service to business and our community at our Inaugural Gala at the Hilton Pasadena on Friday, July 12, 2013. The event honors the installation of CL Keedy of UBS and the Pasadena Tournament of Roses as Chair of the Board of Directors.
The hosted cocktail hour, with hors d’oeuvres and a silent auction, begins at 6:00 p.m. Dinner is served at 7:30 with the installation and awards ceremony starting about 8:15 p.m. We will honor outgoing Chair Patty Waggoner and install new and returning officers and Board members. In addition to scholarship awards, one small business and one large business will be recognized as Corporate Citizen of the Year.
A highlight of the event is the special silent auction that takes place during the cocktail hour. This year, the silent auction will include trips, culinary experiences, opportunities for once-in-a-lifetime activities, Los Angeles Clippers and Dodger tickets along with other special items donated by Pasadena Chamber members. You can support the event by donating items for our silent auction.
For information on donating to support the silent auction, or to be sure to receive an invitation, email Leanne@pasadena-chamber.org.
You can nominate a Pasadena Chamber member as our Corporate Citizen of the Year for 2013. We celebrate one of our large business members and one of our small business members at the Inaugural Gala on July 12th.
Small businesses are those with 50 employees or fewer. Large businesses are those with 51 employees or more. (If you are unsure of the category, choose small business. We will verify the size of the company and make sure your nomination is in the correct category.)
The Board of Directors of the Pasadena Chamber will make the final decision about which Pasadena Chamber member receives recognition in each category.
You can nominate more than one business, if you like. You can also nominate your own company.
Deadline to nominate candidates for Corporate Citizen of the Year is Friday, June 16, 2013.
Thank you for helping choose our Corporate citizen of the Year.
