Helping businesses celebrate milestones

Every day, the Chamber works to help businesses grow and thrive. And one of the things we love most is when we have the opportunity to help those organizations commemorate significant achievements – grand openings, anniversaries, new facilities and more.

Check out the organizations that we recently helped celebrate new milestones!

• On October 26, United Poly Systems (UPS) commemorated their 10-year anniversary. UPS is a local manufacturer of high-density polyethylene pipes.
• On November 2, Gloria Deo Academy marked the opening of a new facility. The private, Christian classical, university-style school has expanded recently to five campus locations and officially purchased their first building on Golden Avenue.
