News From the President

Moab Area Chamber of Commerce
Steve Lawry

As the President of the Chamber of Commerce I have the opportunity to be involved in our Community and the State and would like to pass along some exciting news about the Chamber’s new relationships and events.

Prosperity 20/20

This past spring the Moab Area Chamber of Commerce was invited to join a Salt Lake Based program called: Prosperity 20/20. This is an expanding State wide program that focuses on education. The following are the goals for the program:

90% of all Elementary School students to be proficient in Math and Reading
Two-Thirds of Utahans should achieve postsecondary training by 2020
Two out of three Utahans 20 years of age and older to have a skill, trade certificate or college degree.
Prosperity 20/20 is a consolidated effort that will help our State and Communities achieve that goal. I will be attending another meeting mid August and I will update you as to our group’s progress.
Remember; Education is the path to enduring prosperity.

Chamber of Commerce Scholarship

Recently, the Moab Area Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors voted to extend a scholarship to graduating seniors of Grand County High School starting with the Class of 2013. We hope to assist our recipients with a chance to further their education. The scholarship will have a number of conditions as to Volunteer hours, work experience and community services.

Grand County School’s New Superintendant

On behalf of the Chamber of Commerce we would like to welcome Dr. Crane to our Community as the new Superintendant of our Schools. I have had the opportunity to meet with Dr. Crane a couple of times and feel he has a great vision for our Community, so with that welcome to Moab Dr. Crane.

After Hours Mixer

Our first mixer was a great success and we thank Moab Auto Group and Norm Knapp for hosting that, if you were unable to make that one the next Mixer will be here before you know it.
August 23rd 6pm, Moab Realty will be our host for the mixer at their new office space at the corner of Main & 300 South (the old Zions Bank Building. We hope to see you there.
