Wednesday, January 21, 2015
Ms. BROWNLEY of California. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize
the Moorpark Chamber of Commerce's 100th anniversary. I commend the
Moorpark Chamber for their dedication and leadership in promoting a
business friendly community and strengthening the economic environment
in Moorpark that contributes to Ventura County's diverse and dynamic
economy.
The Moorpark Chamber of Commerce was established in 1915 surrounded
by a pastoral community and chartered in 1950. The success of the
Chamber is mirrored in the success of the City of Moorpark, a product
of determined citizens coming together to accomplish a common goal, and
creating a better way of life for residents.
The service that the Moorpark Chamber has provided for the City of
Moorpark has been invaluable to the community. Successful ventures
included the business directory that began in 1963, and the publication
of the Community Link Newspaper in 2009. The Moorpark Chamber supports
cooperation, and collaborative relationships among citizens,
businesses, and community organizations. Through strong membership,
inclusive programs, and special committees, the Moorpark Chamber of
Commerce honors the history and diversity of the community.
The Moorpark Chamber of Commerce supports a strong vibrant community,
rich in civic engagement, hosting events that facilitate community
inclusion, recognizing outstanding residents of Moorpark through the
Citizen of the Year recognition event and Annual Community Awards, and
continuing to foster new generations of community leaders.
I am honored to recognize the Moorpark Chamber of Commerce's
centennial anniversary. I congratulate the Chamber in reaching this
historic milestone, and would like to extend my sincere gratitude for
their continued success, and service to the City of Moorpark and our
community.
