Message from the President
Dear Members,

On behalf of the Sebastian Chamber of Commerce, we would like to thank you for your support and continued membership. I’d like to introduce myself if I have not yet had the pleasure of meeting you and your business. I have the honor of serving as the President & CEO of the Chamber and advocating for your business. In operation since 1958, the Sebastian Chamber of Commerce has been an advocate for the business community and actively supports economic development in our city. It is my responsibility to continue the Chamber’s efforts and present improved programs and services that will bring great value to your business.

Your Chamber investment allows us the opportunity to continue expanding and adding new programs that enable you, as a member, to further promote your business.

We offer your business many opportunities to meet with other Chamber members that you may want to do business with. Join us at one of our monthly networking functions every 1st Friday, 2nd Tuesday, and 3rd Thursday of the month and annual events. Your participation goes a long way in maximizing your Chamber investment and establishing your business as an active organization in Sebastian's business community.

You can get more involved by becoming a part of one or more of our committees. These committees meet on a regular basis, and we hope you will add your name to the committee that interests you. Contact the Chamber to find out which team is a good fit for you.

If you have not been in contact with us recently, I encourage you to stop by or give us a call and find out how we can help promote or grow your business. I can stop by your place of business and bring the resources to you. If we have not had the opportunity to meet in person yet, let’s make a date!

Please do not hesitate to contact the Chamber office at (772)589-5969.

Thank you again, and we look forward to seeing you at one of our events in the very near future.
Happy Holidays!


Cheryl Thibault
President / CEO

ABOUT ME
I BELIEVE HOMES ARE LIKE PEOPLE, UNIQUE IN THEIR OWN WAY, WITH A DISTINCTIVE STYLE AND PERSONALITY. My many years of putting my client's needs first, community involvement, knowledge of Indian River County, and my business experience will be beneficial to anyone looking to sell their property or buy their dream home.
Help with the heavy lifting, that’s just one of the many services White Glove Moving & Storage provides to customers.
Celebrating 20 years of continued service, headquartered in Indian River County, White Glove is proud to be an A+ rated moving and storage partner serving the Treasure Coast while also bringing families into and out of Florida as an interstate agent with Bekins Vanlines.

Now with two warehouses offering climate and humidity controlled storage, White Glove is proud to do as much or as little as needed to help make their customers move a cost-effective and enjoyable experience. Always offering a free in-home or virtual survey, White Glove offers Moving, storage, receiving, delivery and installation services. These professional movers are also dedicated to the community. Supporting dozens of non-profits annually, White Glove enjoys giving back and cultivating a team environment that garners long lasting employees.

Having been with the company for the past ten years, Anna Valencia Tillery is the director of marketing and enjoys being active in the chambers of commerce, realtors associations and various networking groups; while also serving as a board member to a number of organizations including the Better Business Bureau. As an active mother, wife and river roamer, Anna also hosts a weekly talk radio show, The Treasure Coast Insider helping listeners explore: where to go, what to try and how to give back throughout the region. A proud Sebastian Chamber member since 2013, Anna regularly attends the networking luncheons and finds value in sponsoring events annually. 

“Hope your day is moving along marvelously fellow chamber friends!” -Anna
