Mayor Karla Brown installed Kim Damiani of Summit Financial Group as the 2022 Chair of the Board at our State of the Pleasanton Chamber event last week before a sellout crowd of more than 125 attendees at The Club at Ruby Hill. Watch a video of the installation here. We recognized outstanding volunteers, met the new board of directors and heard all about what's ahead in 2022.
