The Anaheim Chamber of Commerce welcomed a sold out crowd to our Annual Luncheon at Angel Stadium. Thank you to Angels Baseball and the Anaheim City Council Members for participating in this event, which connects the team, the community, and Anaheim businesses together in a meaningful and memorable way. Everyone enjoyed stories from three generations of Angels pitchers: current player Patrick Sandoval and legends Chuck Finley and Clyde Wright. We were excited to welcome the Loara Little League to the luncheon, who were graciously sponsored by Visit Anaheim. This event would not have been possible without our sponsors and business partners: Visit Anaheim, SA Recycling, Manheim California, Republic Services, Stovall's Hotels of Anaheim, Anaheim Transportation Network, Brewery X, LiUNA! Local 652, ocV!BE, Pacific Western Bank and Radiant Futures.
