From the President
The Annual Awards Luncheon provided an excellent venue to recognize our members and to report on what's ahead for the Lewisville Area Chamber. I was pleased to report on the Chamber's successes in 2015.

As we look ahead to 2016, I am proud to introduce the creation of a Hispanic Division, the development of a small business incubator, the execution of the Lead Forward Mentoring program, and the execution of a candidates school. Each of these initiatives are a part of the Chamber's strategic plan, which is reviewed and approved by the board of directors.

Through these efforts we will grow our minority business sector, provide much needed resources to small businesses, strengthen our future workforce, and help to prepare future elected leaders. This work will not only strengthen the business community, but the community at large.

If you have an interest in helping us in one or more of these initiatives, please contact me via email.

Be sure to stay in touch with all things Lewisville Area Chamber of Commerce by liking us on Facebook, following us on Twitter, or watching our videos on YouTube. The Lewisville Area Chamber of Commerce consistently has A LOT of very exciting things going on in our community that may benefit you, so be sure to stay connected with us.

At your service,
Ray Hernandez
