The Carlsbad Chamber of Commerce celebrated those who help make it one of the strongest and vibrant chambers in the state at the Volunteer Recognition Breakfast on Dec. 2.
The Chamber gave out seven awards for committee members of the year and one award for task force member of the year. The honored were Paula Anderson (Ambassador), Steven Santore (Armed Services), Deb Beddoe (Business Resources), Rosemary Eshelman (Education), Michelle Herrera (Government Affairs), Ross Fields (Sustainability) and Lee Sterling (Technology). Deb Beddoe of ReadyCarlsbad was the task force member of the year.
Sara Snyder was honored as the committe chair of the year (Business Resource).
The Sustainability Committee was named the Chamber’s Committee of the Year while Ready Carlsbad was named the Task Force of the Year.
Meritorious Service Awards were given to Fernando Beltran Lupi and Matt Leonard and the Go-Giver Award, in only its second year, went to Ryan Alexeev.
“When volunteers come together for a common cause, their efforts grow exponentially,” said Chamber President and CEO Ted Owen, who added that the volunteers allowed the Chamber to provide more than 360 events and services for its members in 2011.
“It’s through the hard work and dedication of our volunteers that we achieve the things that we accomplish,” Owen said.
