Lights! Camera! Your Chamber in Action!!

BY MELINDA RIZZO

Join the Upper Bucks Chamber of Commerce glitterati as they celebrate annual awards and meeting, an evening to remember.
 
Ever wondered how it feels to walk the red carpet,
or how those Old Hollywood stars shined in the days of Bacall and Bogart, Cagney and Crawford, Hayworth and Hepburn?
 
Come to the awards and meeting and get to know what makes UBCC the place to meet, connect, network and do business.
 
“I’m looking forward to Night of the Stars to connect with business leaders in the community,” said Sue Deily, a real estate agent with RE/MAX 440 in Quakertown.
 
As a Quakertown area native Deily said she appreciates UBCC’s diversity of business owners and managers. “I love the brainstorming” during committee meetings, Deily explained. It’s one of many things that helps Deily’s business grow.
 
Come out to the Night of Stars as our very own UBCC members put the shine on business and industry, community engagement, workforce and education.
 
Kate Underwood, owner of Rita’s Italian Ice of Quakertown, said it’s important to support local area businesses, and to get to know one another.
 
It’s one of the reasons she joined UBCC when she set up shop at 534 W. Broad Street.
 
“I want to be with like-minded business owners- [because they are] responsible for the Renaissance in downtown Quakertown,” Underwood explained.
 
Victoria “Vicky” McClatchy said the event would be a “good time to celebrate the great business people in the community.”
 
McClatchy is a mortgage originator with Supreme Lending, a nationwide firm with local offices in Upper Bucks County.
