The Coral Springs Regional Chamber's Monthly Newsletter Volume: 3 Issue: 2 February 2019 VISIT OUR WEBSITE A Message From Our President The Gala committee is working feverishly to make this year’s Grand Gala presented by Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital & U18 Sports Medicine a wonderful evening that benefits the Chamber’s Education Foundation. The money raised from the auction provides much needed funding to the DECA and BPA programs (programs for business students) in our seven local high schools located in Coral Springs & Coconut Creek. The theme this year is “Night of the Stars”, the attire is ‘semi-formal’ and it will be held on Friday, March 15th 2019 at the Heron Bay Marriott. We will be sending out Auction Donation forms as donating auction items is a powerful way of marketing your business while also giving back to the community. The Small Business Leader of the Year for Coral Springs and Coconut Creek will be honored this year, as well as the Covered Bridge Award winner in Coral Springs and for Coconut Creek, the Butterfly Award, which is given to professionals who show outstanding civic leadership and give unselfishly of their time and talent. This year also introduces new awards at
