Save the date for the Bowie CC banquet Jan. 22
The Bowie Chamber of Commerce invites you to “save the date” for its annual award banquet on Jan. 22.
Doors will open at 6 p.m. that night in the Bowie Community Center for a social hour followed by the banquet room doors opening at 6:40 p.m. to seating. Tickets are $40 and now available to reserve.
Along with the awards there will be door prizes, plus a live and silent auction. New directors and outgoing directors and officers also will be recognized.
The chamber is calling all table decorators to put their own special touch to the banquet tables using this year’s theme, “Lights, camera, action.”
Decorators can feature their business using the theme, as well as any special event or promotion you may have planned for the year. The top decorator award awaits. Call the chamber at 872-1173 to sign-up for a table.
Award nominations are due Jan. 8.
Each year the chamber presents awards for Business of the Year, Community Support Award and the Frances Brite Citizen of the Year. All nominations are strictly confidential.
Email [email protected] or drop them off at the office located at 101 East Pecan Street. Nomination forms are on the chamber website at bowietxchamber.org
The nomination should include an explanation of why you feel this business should be considered for this award.
Attach any additional documentation to support the nomination. You may nominate anyone who qualifies, including your own business.
Nominations will be reviewed by the committee and the results announced during the banquet.
The top awards include the Frances Brite Award for volunteerism, Community Support Award and Business of the Year.
