Welcome to November from Councilwoman Wendy Bucknum!

​November is a month full of thankfulness and what a great month to share how thankful I am for our Mission Viejo Chamber of Commerce!
 
The Mission Viejo Chamber of Commerce has evolved into an amazing organization providing support, resources and opportunities to our local business community.   When I was a Community Services Commissioner and serving on the South Orange County Regional Chamber of Commerce / Economic Coalition as Chair, I knew firsthand the importance of establishing a Mission Viejo Chamber of Commerce to meet the needs of our community.   I was proud to be part of that initial group, along with Karin Krawiec as the first MV Chamber President, to establish our current Mission Viejo Chamber of Commerce. 

Collaborating with other business leaders and bringing my business experience as Vice President of Associa Professional Community Management,  a local community management company based in South Orange County for almost 50 years, our vision was to have a strong partnership with the City of Mission Viejo to provide positive experiences and opportunity for our business community.
 
The vision has come to fruition, as our Mission Viejo Chamber of Commerce continues to elevate their presence in the community, on social media, and in the region.  It is my privilege to serve the people and businesses in our city and I am thankful to work with such a great group of Chamber members!
