"Good Fortune Starts Here," in Shawnee.
The Shawnee Chamber of Commerce's Annual
Dinner 2009 is around the corner; save the date of
Saturday, Jan. 30, 2010. More than 500
guests will enjoy an evening of fine dining and
dancing at the Sheraton Hotel in Overland Park, Kan.
Both a silent and live auction will spice up the night
with an on-going, bid battle.
The premiere event will celebrate the many
successes of the 2009 Chairman of the Shawnee
Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors John
Miller, Lake Quivira Country Club, and will welcome
the 2010 Chairman of the Board.
Annual Dinner Chair Lori Barngrover, LA Graphics,
alongside Co Chairs Chris Gorup, Shawnee Mission
Ford, and Jody Adams, JRA Baskets, will work
together with the event's committee of dedicated
volunteers to make sure the evening, Good Fortune
Starts Here, is one to remember.
If your business is interested in donating an auction
item to either the silent or live auction, please contact

President of Programs and Events, either at the

Mission Medical Center

Special thanks...
As the year 2009 comes to a close, I want to
personally thank all of our Chamber members for your
continued investment through what we all know was a
challenging year. We hope we have been there to
provide support for you and our Shawnee community,
as we look forward to a brighter year in 2010. I look
forward to seeing you all at the Annual Dinner,
Good Fortune Starts Here, Saturday, Jan. 30,
2010.
I want to give a special thank you to our Chairman of
the Board, John Miller, for his leadership role
this year. As General Manager of Quivira Lake Country
Club, John has many demands on his time, but he
devoted many hours throughout the year to attend all
of the Chamber's programs and events. John
provided great leadership to our organization during
the year and will continue to provide leadership on the
Executive Committee as we move forward.
Finally, I want to thank Kevin Fern, Amy Graves,
Megan Hardwick, Jim Martin, Mary Taylor and our
newest staff, Stacey Dickson and Libby Connell,
who work very hard every day supporting the
members, programs and events of the Chamber
organization.
From all of the Chamber, Economic Development
and Visitors Bureau staff, we wish you the best in this
Holiday Season and a great New Year!
