The Santa Maria Valley Chamber congratulates all who put themselves forward as potential community leaders. Many people have ideas, but not as many are willing to offer themselves as potential leaders to get things done. Win or lose, they all deserve our respect and appreciation. Today, we particularly want to congratulate those who were elected to serve in our local community. As a Champion for a vibrant Santa Maria Valley, we look forward to working closely with our c...ity council and county supervisors to restore and accelerate the economic vitality of our community. Congrats to: Alice Patino, Santa Maria Mayor Mike Cordero and Carlos Escobedo, Santa Maria City Council Bob Nelson, Santa Barbara Board of Supervisors Ariston Julian, Guadalupe Mayor Jordan Cunningham, CA Assembly Monique Limon, CA Senate. #santamariastyle #ChamberIs #champion #convener #catalyst #localleadership
