Our next Mira Mesa Chamber of Commerce meeting will take place Tuesday, June 16 at Ashoka the Great Indian Restaurant at 6:00 p.m. This meeting will feature a demonstration of how our chamber website functions, the member to member discounts, special members only section, and how to log in and change your assigned password for your security. We will also have our Business Spotlight on Tea Leaves 4 U, presented by Brahna Derr. I hope you will make plans on attending, and please tell a friend about the meeting/mixer. Our membership keeps growing, and our community involvement is spreading as well. Next month is the First Annual Mira Mesa Health and Wellness Fair, which will be held at the Country Inn and Suites on Friday, July 24 from 11:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. and we are a major sponsor of this community event. We have partnered with Lifestyles INFOCUS to bring this successful event to Mira Mesa, following the great turn out that they had at the Poway Health and Wellness Fair in April. This event is open to the public, with free admission. Volunteers are needed to help run our Chamber booth at the Fair, in addition to helping with efforts that day. Thanks for supporting our ever growing chamber, and I hope to see you at Ashoka the Great! Ashoka The Great Indian Restaurant 9474 Black Mountain Rd # Gh

The Mira Mesa Chamber of Commerce and San Diego North Chamber of Commerce collaborate to add benefit to Mira Mesa Business Members. Debra Rosen, the new CEO of the San Diego North Chamber of Commerce, reached out to our local chamber in an effort to provide regional support for our newly formed Chamber of Commerce. She is committed to reaching out to the various communities that they support, advancing strong business partnerships with neighboring communities, and helping to promote member businesses through community events, chamber events, and member mixers.
 I was very pleased with the outcome from our meeting, as we both share a common goal of providing the best possible benefits to our members, while giving back to our communities. We both are looking forward to working together as we grow as a chamber, and include the San Diego North Chamber in our community events such as the 1st Annual Mira Mesa Health & Wellness Fair, 4th of July Celebration, Street Fair and others. They will in turn extend invitations to our members for their events, seminars, and chamber mixers.
Although San Diego North is a Regional Chamber with over 1,000 members, there are many things that we both can gain by joining forces. As a smaller chamber, we are very active in our community and move quickly to address issues that concern our business and residential groups. With our local ties to the Town Council, various organizations and political representatives, we can share our issues with the SD North chamber as they deal with regional and national issues. They offered support and resources that they have at their disposal, and we will provide them with current information about Mira Mesa for their use in advertising and promotions.
I look forward to working with the San Diego North Chamber of Commerce, as they move in a positive direction under strong new leadership. Together, we will both grow stronger and our members and communities will benefit greatly. Welcome to the neighborhood.
Sincerely,
Mark Smith
Chairman, Mira Mesa Chamber of Commerce |

Mira Mesa is full of wonderful people who volunteer their time, money, and resources for the better of the community. Each year, the Mira Mesa Town Council painstakingly selects one outstanding member of our community and pays tribute to them for all that they do for Mira Mesa. This year we will honor Ted Brengel for his dedication, community support, leadership and friendship at the Volunteer of the Year Black and White Dinner Gala at MCAS Miramar’s Commissioned Officer’s Club from 6-10 p.m. on Saturday, June 6.
 Ted Brengel has been the head of the Mira Mesa Community Planning Group for the past decade, and he is present at just about every community event, meeting, fundraiser, street fair and parade. Following Mike Davis, the previous Volunteer of the Year, is no simple task but the Town Council has chosen the right man to do it. Please join me in celebrating the accomplishments of this outstanding community leader with a night of food, drinks, music and great stories.
Admission is only $25 per guest, and includes dinner and entertainment. A no-host bar will be available. Social hour begins at 6:00, with dinner served promptly at 7:00. Several dignitaries will be present to honor Ted, and this will be a classy evening of dinner and dancing, so dress to impress. Guests are required to enter through the east “Miramar Way” gate, and each visitors name will appear on a prepared gate guest list. Make your reservations early to assure your meal choice and inclusion on the guest list.

Our next Chamber of Commerce meeting/mixer will be Tuesday, May 19 at 6:00 p.m. at the Buca di Beppo restaurant located on Mira Mesa Blvd just off the 15 freeway. This is a meeting you won't want to miss, as Marvin Miles will be our featured Business Spotlight speaker. Marvin has been selling real estate in Mira Mesa longer than just about anyone, and his knowledge about Mira Mesa is phenomenal. We will also have an update from the Police Dept. with tips for business owners to safeguard themselves from the robberies that have been occurring in Mira Mesa in the past few months. We will have the Treasurer's Update, discuss marketing opportunities for members at the Mira Mesa Farmers Market, and the Chairman's Report on my meeting with the New CEO from the San Diego North Chamber of Commerce. Congratulations to Debra Rosen, who was previously the CEO of the Escondido Downtown Business Association on her new position with the SD North Chamber. Please bring business cards with you for the post meeting raffle, and to exchange with our members and guests. As usual, there is no additional fee to attend our meeting/mixer, and you are encouraged to bring guests to the event. A special limited menu will be available featuring an entree, non-alcoholic beverage, tax & gratuity. A no-host bar is also available on a cash-&-carry basis. I hope to see you at our next meeting! |
