CHAMBER NEWS
The Golf Outing and Dinner was held July 18th at Seven Bridges Golf Club. A big thank you to Mike Toohey, the Chair of Golf Committee and the Golf Committee who worked hard at the event and put in so many hours preparing for it. Thank you to Claudine Rummer, Office Manager of the Lisle Area Chamber who worked very diligently on all the details of running a successful event. Thank you to Molex, Inc. who was our Platinum Sponsor again this year. Finally, thank you to our generous
Members who donated so many raffle prizes. We could not have had event without all of you. Ryan MacIntyre, of Plaidypus, Inc., created a scavenger hunt for the golf course. The game worked seamlessly. Team Monetta found all but four hidden QR coded squares and each player in the four-some won a $25.00 gift card. Katie Bulgrin of Culver’s Downers Grove/Lisle was at Hole 10 once again this year serving Culver's custard. It was a very hot day and golfers, volunteers, and staff en-joyed the cool treat. Chamber members Four Lakes Recreation, Torg Realty, Inc. and Williams Chiropractic Center were also hole sponsors. Fair Oaks Ford Lincoln was our Hole-In-One sponsor. Midwest Auto Body of Lisle was a putting green sponsor. The UPS Store, Lisle donated the sponsor hole signs. It would not be an event without B. Gun-ther making our beautiful trophies. Details of the event are in the newsletter page 4 & 5. This time every year we at the Chamber office like to show you our members a little appreciation. We are hosting our annual Member Appreciation picnic, right here in beautiful downtown Lisle at Main and Burlington Avenue on August 17th from 11:30 am – 1:00 pm. Feel free to stop by and network, eat lunch, listen to some music sponsored by 4ASong Vinyl, enjoy Culver’s custard, and maybe win a raffle prize. Congratulations to Eric Ertmoed, Lisle’s new Village Manager.
Additionally, LACC Board of Director, Mike Higgins of Molex,
