We would like to say thanks to all those who came out to our 137th Annual Vallejo Chamber Installation Dinner and congratulations to all those who won very special awards at this event as well. It was a memorable night for our newly installed Chairman of the Board 2012, Rudy Manfredi, who accepted the position from Past-Chair Michael Coan. Pippin Dew of RE/MAX Gold was appointed Chair Elect & Vice Chair Community Promotions, and Marc Salvadori of Minuteman Press accepted responsibility of the Vallejo Chamber Treasurer for 2012. We also gave awards for Small Business of the Year, BB&B Business Group/Local Happenings Magazine; Medium Sized Business of the Year, A-1 Guaranteed Heating & Air Conditioning; Large Business of the Year, Windsor Vallejo Care Center; Non-Profit Partner of the Year; Vallejo Main Street, Rookie of the Year, Sam Thompson of Farmers Insurance.
We would also like to congratulate the recipients of our two most prestigious awards, Erin Hannigan winner of the coveted Athena Award sponsored by Avery Greene Honda and, Marc Salvadori winner of the “Bud Butler – Chamber Man of the Year” Award.
All of our seven award winners were highly deserving of their recognition. These are people and businesses who work hard to strengthen our community through their volunteer efforts.
