Last month, I was lucky enough to graduate from the Leadership Chester County program administered by the United Way of Chester County. I am very passionate about the non-profit space, whether it be serving underprivileged youth, local military and first responder families, or the special needs community. Over the past 8 months, this program helped to further elevate that feeling. Serving on three different boards currently (you guessed it - treasurer!), I was hopeful that I would be able to pick up some new skills and ideas that I could take with me, while being able to spend time with a group of people who are dedicated to making their communities better. This program delivered that and so much more. I would HIGHLY recommend it to anyone who is interested in learning more about the non-profit space, and wanting to be a leader in both the company they work for and the community they live in. I want to thank my sponsors Stephano Slack LLC, Bournelyf Special Camp, and the Folds of Honor Eastern PA/NJ Chapter for supporting me to go through this program and making the investment in my development as an employee, a board member, and a person. And a big thanks to Kelly Cockshaw and the entire team at United Way of Chester County for making it such a worthwhile thing to be part of. When you help others - you help yourself! Congrats again to LCC 2024!

    I appreciate the opportunity that The Chester County Chamber of Business & Industry has given me in being an Ambassador. Going to the events and being a resource for new members has been a great experience and I look forward to meeting and welcoming many more people in the future!

    What does it mean to be one of CCCBI's Ambassadors? It means joining the CCCBI team as a resource and guide for both new and potential members! They know who we are and what we can do for small, medium and large businesses throughout Chester County. But don't just take our word for it... Many thanks to our Ambassador Matt from Stephano Slack LLC, who has seen firsthand how we aim to welcome and support our business community! “I have greatly enjoyed the first 6 months of being an Ambassador to CCCBI and representing Stephano Slack. I have been able to see firsthand how the Chamber has been able to welcome new businesses and people and foster meaningful business connections for them. It has been a pleasure getting to welcome new members to the Chamber every month, attending the many events that are organized, and educating people who aren’t members yet about why they should consider becoming a member. Staying top of mind is key in today’s world – CCCBI helps members to do that through their social media outreach, events, and connecting others! I am grateful for this opportunity to be a small piece in helping our businesses thrive in Chester County and beyond.” - Matt, Stephano Slack, LLC Visit www.chescochamber.org to learn more about us or talk to Laura Ellis, our Director of Membership, to learn about the opportunities CCCBI can offer your business!

    2.3 pounds. The official weight of a folded burial flag. At Folds of Honor Eastern PA/NJ Chapter, we work to stand beside the families who have made the ultimate sacrifice, and we honor that sacrifice by educating the legacy of the service member. The cost of freedom is heavy, but we can work to ensure they never carry the burden alone. This July, we'll be back again at French Creek Golf Club in Elverson, PA raising funds for the important mission of making sure these families receive the education and opportunities they deserve. I invite you to join us in support, and to express gratitude on days like today, and every day.

    Keep your eyes peeled for info on this tournament coming soon. I'll be helping run this event again this year - we expect it to sell out quickly!

    Early spring is a time of growing traditions at Stephano Slack LLC (3/15 and 4/15 are just dates, right?). I was honored to host this year's champion's breakfast which included a taste of the south with biscuits and gravy (h/t ANEU Catering), corn muffins and fresh fruit. I'm proud to share that I successfully defended my title again this year, and as such, am already brainstorming the *back2back* menu for next year. Unfortunately, I doubt this success with the flat stick will transfer outside the confines of 125 Strafford Ave. If you're interested in career growth and learning, and at the same time having the chance to showcase your putting skills (or work on them!), reach out to me for how you could be part of the team!
