Murphy Chamber of Commerce
June 17th Luncheon Meeting
The monthly luncheon meeting of the Murphy Chamber was well attended on Tuesday, June 17th , that was held at the Woodbridge Golf Club. Most members made it to the pavilion before the storm hit -- however there was one umbrella casualty -- that of Jerry Kezhaya's of the Auto Shop.
Rick Stephens of R.G. Stephens & Associates presented an entertaining program on “Business Lessons You Can Learn From Star Trek.” Clips from the Star Trek series perfectly demonstrated Rick's points while taking the “Trekies” in attendance down memory lane.
Another special part of the meeting was the introduction of the two Murphy Chamber Scholarship recipients: Deborah Odaise (PISD winner) and Julia Castro (WISD winner). Both are Murphy residents who received $1500 each for their planned attendance at Collin County Community College in the fall.
Announcements included the Chamber's Wednesday, June 25th Come & Go Lunch with Eric Langford at Amado's, 11:30 – 1p.m.; the upcoming Merchant Market the Chamber is sponsoring in conjunction with the City's 50th Anniversary celebration on November 27th at the City Complex; and the next regular luncheon meeting on July 15th when James Tucker, Small Business Association, will be the guest speaker.
No meeting is ever complete until the door prizes are awarded! Lucky ticket holders received a variety of gift items much to their delight.
