Chamber Chat

Ponca City Now - June 11, 2016 7:55 pm

We will have a Ribbon Cutting Ceremony at 10 a.m. Friday for Quench at the Chamber Office. Please join us and welcome Marciano Villarruel and Taylor Page as new members of the Chamber with Quench.

We have several meetings this week including our Leadership Chairs Mary Beth Moore, Erin Liberton and Don Bohon, who will review last year and have discussion on the 31 st Ponca City Leadership Class. Our leadership program is the third oldest continuous leadership program in Oklahoma behind Oklahoma City and Tulsa. I truly believe this Chamber project has had an amazing impact on Ponca City these past 30 years.

I have the opportunity to show the new director for the Ponca City Art Center Lance Garrett around Ponca City this week. I enjoy showing people our incredible city. We have so much to offer. Ponca City is beautiful and has a wide variety of events that appeal to all kinds of people. Plus our outdoor recreation continues to get better and better.

I was in Oklahoma City with family this past week. Several talked about their commute time to and from work. My brother-in-law drives 40 minutes each day one way and it is in the Oklahoma City metro area. Life in Ponca City is awesome for many reasons!
