AJ Hampton


 
Good Evening AV Chambers of Commerce! I hope that you are well as we enter the month of June. Summertime is right around the corner! As the warmer weather approaches, we look forward to seeing you out and about at community events. 

We would like to thank everyone who attended our first Semi-Annual Flea Market of the year. We had a great time and we hope you did as well. With hundreds of vendors and various items to look at, there was something there for everyone. Did you miss it? No worries. We will be hosting the second Semi-Annual Flea Market on Oct 16, 2022. Keep an eye out on our website for registration in July. 
   
We have a calendar filled of events this month. We hope to see you at all of them. Registration is always available on our website avchambers.org/calendar. Membership continues to grow and we are ecstatic. Attendance at our events continues to rise and we always look forward to seeing new faces. We encourage everyone to attend our events as they serve as great networking opportunities for you as an individual and a business owner. As I have mentioned before, it is a privilege to witness the growth of the AV Chambers of Commerce. 
   
The Chamber would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who continues to support us. We are moving forward with exciting things that will continue to support you and the growth of your business. Until next time, God Bless You. 

Welcome the New AV Chambers CEO!

Vicky Ventura

As the new CEO of Antelope Valley Chambers of Commerce, I'd like to introduce myself to you. I'm ecstatic to be managing such a significant organization, one that I've been a part of for a number of years. I'm excited to work with you to find innovative ways to promote, protect, encourage and develop  your business.

I'm a local business owner in the Antelope Valley, as some of you may know. Serving our community has been a major part of my life. Serving our entrepreneurs and small business owners is something I'm extremely passionate about.

It’s a privilege to be able to continue serving my community on a larger scale through the Antelope Valley Chamber of Commerce. I hope to establish deep, long-term relationships with each of you. I  hope to see or meet you soon at one of the Chamber's future events. 

I'd want to express my gratitude to our community for the opportunity to serve as the CEO of the AV Chambers of Commerce.

Le doy a nuestra comunidad las gracias, por la oportunidad de serviles como CEO de la Camara De Comercio de El Valle De Antelope.


Yours Sincerely,
Vicky Ventura
CEO, Antelope Valley Chambers of Commerce
