The Accreditation Program is instituted by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce to recognize outstanding contributions toward positive change by chambers to their communities. Only 1% of the chambers in the United States have achieved a 5-Star rating.

The Roseville Chamber of Commerce is the only accredited chamber in the Northern California region.

A MESSAGE FROM YOUR CEO Wendy Gerig, CEO

1 year, 365 days, 8760 hours, 525,600 minutes Time seems to fly by at record speed, with 2014 being no exception. Here at the Roseville Chamber we put that time to good use and had one of our most successful years to date!

During 2014, we were awarded a 5-Star Accreditation rating from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. Accreditation indicates that a chamber of commerce operates under effective organizational procedures and contributes to significant positive change in the community. To achieve this standing, we performed an intensive self-assessment of our operations in nine core areas of work; some of these included sound policies, effective organizational procedures, and positive impact on the community. The Roseville Chamber of Commerce was the only chamber in California who was awarded 5 stars during the U.S. Chamber’s November 2014 board meeting. With nearly 7,000 chambers in the U.S., we are one of the very few who holds this title. This prestigious honor puts us among the top 1% of chambers nationwide.

While this accreditation marks 2014 as a particularly remarkable year, there were even more accomplishments completed through our Education and Community Development, Membership Services, and Economic and Government Affairs Committees.

Keep reading to see all of the advancements brought about by the Roseville Chamber of Commerce over the past 365 days.

A Message from the 2015 President Kim Silvers Silvers HR LLC I am honored to be the “first among equals” as the President of the 2015 Roseville and Granite Bay Chamber of Commerce Board.

As one of the largest chambers in the region, and the only chamber to have achieved the 5-star accreditation by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, we have a great responsibility to our community and our members. The Roseville Chamber is a conduit between our business members, the City of Roseville and surrounding government entities, schools and our customers. We strive everyday to make our community a better place to work, do business and live. It is apparent in the first class approach our Chamber staff, ambassadors and members take on our networking and business development events. Whether it’s a one-on-one meeting or hosting several hundred people - this Chamber knows how to make people feel welcome.

My firm has been a member of the Roseville and Granite Bay Chamber since 2005. Although we have been members of many other business organizations in the last 30 years, we find that the return on our investment in this Chamber has been spectacularly valuable. The people we meet, the resources that are made available, the doors that have been opened and the access to our local community representatives sets the advantages of this Chamber’s membership apart. I am very proud to be a part of this community. I welcome you to join us and see how you may leverage your Chamber membership for your personal and commercial benefit.

Please feel free to contact me at kim@silvershr.com if I can be of assistance.

I look forward to meeting you at one of our many events.
