A Message from Chamber Board Chair Bob Caldwell, Hallmark Homecare
Bob Caldwell
It’s a longstanding tradition for the Chamber Board Chair to share some thoughts at the start of the new year, reflecting on the accomplishments of the preceding months. Trying to create a “Year in Review” for 2020 is, to say the least, daunting. I don’t need to tell you that this year has been filled with stress, uncertainty, and devastating hardship for many of our members. Without downplaying the harsh realities, allow me to highlight a few silver linings that helped sustain our organization in 2020 and give me optimism about the outlook ahead.
The Chamber’s Board of Directors will welcome three new faces beginning in January 2021: Lee Brooks, Bell Flavors & Fragrances; Mark DeBartolo, Len Roofing and Remodeling; and Amy Kahhat, First Bank of Highland Park. These individuals join our 20-member Board to help guide the Chamber’s direction as the organization transitions out of its COVID-emergency operations.
