The Texas Chamber of Commerce executives present awards each year for excellence in media design at their annual conference. From 614 chambers of commerce in Texas, only a few innovative chambers received one of the top three placements in the media contest. In our division, the Brazosport Area Chamber received first place for our newsletter. All entries are critiqued by a professional panel of marketing or publishing agencies and judged to industry standards. Congratulations to Donna Hargraves, office manager, who creates the chamber’s newsletter that has won so many awards over the years and was recently converted to electronic mail with the help of David Read of Read Communications and their product (www.groupbuilder.net). This is the 22nd state Award of Excellence the Brazosport Chamber has received for various publications over the last 12 years. The staff continually strives to improve and streamline our products to better serve our members and it is always an honor to be recognized by your peers.
