Chamber & City partner to assist Hurricane victims
Juan A. Navejar Jr.
The Alice Chamber of Commerce and the City of Alice teamed up to help provide support for Hurricane Harvey victims by opening a central location for donations of non-perishable foods, water, toiletries etc.
The year is going by too fast before you know it my term as board president will come to an end. A good indication of this is the nomination of the five new board members who will take office in January.
We certainly dodged a bullet with Hurricane Harvey, but for our neighbors east and north of us on the coast, the devastation was like a nightmare for those affected. I know firsthand what it is like to lose everything from a hurricane.
The Alice Ambassadors are looking for new members who would like to service the Chamber. We welcome Charity Webster from Meridian Care of Alice to our group.
