recognize the Conroe/Lake Conroe Chamber of Commerce, which is
celebrating 85 years of service to the community in 2019; and

Chamber of Commerce, this distinguished chamber began with a
humble membership of three businesses that sought to strengthen
the economic environment and quality of life in the county; and
WHEREAS, Today, the chamber thrives as a nonprofit,
community-based organization of more than 1,100 members governed
by a member-elected board of directors that determines policy,
sets goals, and steers the path of the chamber; the board also
employs a president who hires a professional staff to handle
day-to-day operations; and
WHEREAS, Throughout its 85-year history, the chamber has
upheld its mission of local service by generating awareness,
establishing partnerships, and providing leadership for
progressive development and growth; and
WHEREAS, The Conroe/Lake Conroe Chamber of Commerce
remains committed to supporting local businesses and industries
while fostering a well-balanced and wholesome quality of life for
residents; all associated with the chamber can be justifiably
proud of their many achievements and look to the future with
confidence; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 86th
