Message from the Chamber President

It is an honor to have been chosen to serve as President of the Crescenta Valley Chamber of Commerce for the year 2012. The Chamber board is like a very large family, with many past-presidents still being members; I am privileged to be a part of it.

7 years ago when I started my business in La Crescenta - I was approached by Leslie, our Past-President to join the Chamber and become involved. Not only has that decision helped my business grow, I have also gotten to know some great people that are very passionate about our community.

As President, my goal will be working with our local businesses to build stronger relationships with each other. This year, more than ever we all need to support the local businesses to keep our community thriving.

The Chamber offers many tools that businesses can use, like the monthly business mixers, the annual business expo, advertising opportunities and more. The Chamber exists to serve you. If not already a member, please take a few moments to fill out the membership application. This small step will ensure you becoming part of a dedicated and enthusiastic team working together to achieve common goals.

We also hold many fundraising events that give back to the schools and service organizations, like the always entertaining “Smart-A-Thon” and family favorite “Hometown Country Fair”. For the sports minded we have the 5K run and a golf tournament.

As members of our community, I ask you to stay connected with the Chamber - come in to the office, visit us online by going to our website or join us on Facebook. We also have an email newsletter that publishes upcoming events and specials.

If I can assist you in any way - personally or through my business - please don’t hesitate to let me know.

I am looking forward to a great year - and I thank you again for choosing me to serve as President.

Leonard Ghazarian, President
Crescenta Valley Chamber of Commerce
