Please join us in our heartfelt congratulations to Sandy, and our appreciation for her being a wonderful neighbor and part of our Mira Mesa Community.  She is incredible, a truly caring individual with a love for our 'neighborhood' and the people of Mira Mesa.

December's membership meeting went very well, with newly elected Chair, Marv Miles, leading our meeting, and Tri Huynh, Secretary, assisting.  With a relatively small gathering on a busy Holiday weeknight, we decided to have an open discussion on the transition and objectives for the New Year.  A lot of progress was made in several areas, i.e. your Chamber will be co-hosting the Casino Night with the 4th of July Committee to be held in March, future membership drive efforts & objectives, building on our Chamber's first year's foundational accomplishments, improving efficiency in communications, support and benefits for our members and our business & general community, expanding our collaborative efforts with people, businesses and organizations in and out of our community that will benefit our Mira Mesa community as a whole. 

A very appreciative Thank You to our host member, Ashoka the Great Restaurant, for hosting our Chamber meeting, always a wonderful and pleasant experience with good food & wonderful hosts.  Voted "Best Healthy Food" by The Reader and "Best Indian Food" by San Diego Magazine!  Please see their website - http://www.ashokasd.com/  Location: 9474 Black Mountain Rd # G San Diego, CA 92126 (858) 695-9749

Thank you to all that attended.  I personally was excited to hear the directions and objectives discussed at our meeting, and how it can benefit all of us here in Mira Mesa. 

From all of us involved with your Mira Mesa Chamber of Commerce, thank you for all of your support, may you have a wonderful, safe and healthy Holiday Season and the same throughout the New Year.

Our December Chamber meeting will take place on Tuesday, December 15th at 6:00 p.m. at Ashoka the Great Indian Restaurant. We have held many of our meetings at Ashoka, and the buffet is always a hit with our members and guests! Remember, they give us a great discount on the dinner buffet for our meetings, so please plan on dining with us during the meeting as the dinner package is only $15 per person which includes; dinner, non-alcoholic beverage, tax & tip!

Our newly elected Chairman Marv Miles will take the reigns and lead the meeting, and we will be given the opportunity to voice our opinion on the issues and events that we would like to cover in the 2010 calendar year. Sandy Smith will provide us with information about the newest committee which is currently seeking volunteers: The Casino Night event to benefit the Fourth of July Fireworks. We will also have a presentation from our November drawing winner, Tri Huynh (also our newly elected Secretary!).

 This is also the first reminder for our current members to renew their membership for the 2010 calendar year. We have decided not to increase our membership dues to allow all of our current members to receive all of the benefits that we enjoyed last year, even in these financially trying times. We will strive to provide our members with increasing opportunities to promote your businesses, and valuable networking opportunities at each general meeting. Thank you for your support, and we look forward to seeing you at Ashoka the Great Tuesday night!

 Sincerely, 

The Board of Directors

Mira Mesa Chamber of Commerce

Our November meeting has changed locations! The previously scheduled meeting will not take place at San Diego National Bank, instead it will be held at Callahan's Pub & Brewery.

Our next Mira Mesa Chamber of Commerce meeting will be November 17, 2009 at Callahan's Pub & Brewery. We will hold our elections for the 2010 Board of  Directors during the meeting, and this meeting will be for members only due to the nature of the event. A dinner buffet and beverages will be provided by the Chamber to all members in attendance. We will be opening the doors at 6:00 p.m. and voting will take place at 6:30. Thank you to all of our 2009 members, and we look forward to an exciting new year with a strong new board of directors. Special thanks to the all volunteer 2009 Board of Directors for their hard work and leadership.

An e-mail notice of the change of venue was sent to all current members of the chamber. We apologize for any inconvenience.
