January - President's Message
Brentwood Chamber family,
As we step into a new year, I want to begin with gratitude. Thanks to the passion of our members, the dedication of our volunteers, and the support of our partners, we’ve built a Chamber rooted in service, connection, and real results. We’ve championed local businesses, celebrated wins big and small, and strengthened the fabric of our community. That success is our springboard—and this year, we’re elevating.
Elevate Member Value. We’ll deepen the resources that help you grow—more practical workshops, peer-to-peer learning, and tools that turn connections into customers. Expect programming designed around the real challenges and opportunities you face, from marketing to workforce.
Elevate Connections. Relationships fuel business. We’ll expand high-energy mixers, industry roundtables, and our Ambassador efforts to ensure every member—new and longstanding—has a clear path to meaningful introductions and visibility.
Elevate Community Impact. Brentwood thrives when local business thrives. We’ll amplify “shop local” campaigns, partner closely with city and regional leaders, and spotlight the businesses and nonprofits that make our community special.
Most of all, we will continue to listen. Your ideas and feedback shape our priorities and keep us accountable. If you’re ready to get more involved—host an event, serve on a committee, or share expertise—this is your year to lean in.
Thank you for the trust you place in the Chamber and in one another. Together, we’ll elevate what we’ve successfully built and create new momentum for every member and for Brentwood as a whole.
Sincerely,
Denise Cosgrove
President Brentwood Chamber of Commerce
