Chamber honors the city’s best

BY KEN ABRAMCZYK

Some of Chandler’s outstanding businesses, educators and administrators will be honored and recognized at the 28th annual Chandler Chamber Community Awards Dinner set for 5:30 p.m. Wednesday, June 3, at the Wild Horse Pass Hotel & Casino, 5040 Wild Horse Pass Blvd.

Terri Kimble, president and CEO of the Chandler Chamber of Commerce, noted that the event gives more than just recognition for businesses of the year.

“There is the Diversity Award, Educator of the Year Award and the Snedigar Public Service Award,” Kimble said.

“It is a conglomerate (of awards) and it shows the community coming together. What makes it unique is it is truly a community event.”

The awards recognize outstanding businesses of all sizes, as well as educators and administrators who demonstrate leadership and exemplify commitment.

Winners will be announced for the Chandler Cup, the Chamber Cup, the Community Cup, the Business of the Year Award, the Business Diversity Award, the Small Business of the Year Award, the Micro Business of the Year Award, the James R. Snedigar Public Service Award, Ambassador of the Year Award, Educator of the Year, Administrator of the Year AwardSchools, Support Staff of the Year Award-Schools and Chandler Chamber

Community Foundation Scholarships for students at Chandler-Gilbert Community College.

Kimble said the Chamber honors and celebrates all segments of the community with these awards, each of them unique in its category.

“How can you compare awards for small and micro businesses, an outstanding volunteer or the mayor’s choice award?” Kimble asked. “They’re all really important to the community.”

Some awards give recognition to those workers who don’t expect or receive much recognition for what they do, Kimble said, such as the Support Staff of the Year Award, which went to a school custodian last year. The custodian was so touched receiving the award, that he broke down and wept, Kimble said.

Cocktails and registration begin at 5:30 p.m. The welcome, invitation and dinner begin at 6 p.m. Tickets are $50 for members and $60 for nonmembers.

They are available at chandlerchamber. com.

In another room, Kinesis machines allow users to work on core muscles without weights. Using zero-impact exercises, members can improve balance, strength and flexibility, Erdenberger said.

Exercise is combined with entertainment on machines, as users can either watch television or bring in a DVD to view while they workout.

The club, now up to 1,200 members in just three weeks, experiences “rush hours” with many members trying to squeeze in a workout before 10 a.m., then the traffic slows down, and a second rush enters at noon That is followed by a break in the afternoon. Late afternoon brings a rush of families and commuters in late afternoon. Families tend to gather there in the evening, late Saturday afternoon and Sundays, Erdenberger said.

Food is available from the Lakeview Cafe, which offers a full menu for breakfast, lunch and dinner, along with snacks, water and coffee.

In March, the TomKat Studio hosted its first craft class, where customers were treated with refreshments as they made an adorable bunny wall art, just in time for spring. Stoegbauer is looking forward to hosting more craft classes at her storefront.

In just six months since opening, Stoegbauer has seen her online success transfer to real life. With a growing staff and loyal customers, she was even able to take on a college intern. Her intern worked at

“We have collaborated on projects together over the years and she reached out about the possibility of me opening a retail shop here,” said Stoegbauer. “The space here is huge and we even moved our shipping warehouse to the back of the building.”

Found is also the home to T. Madison, a boutique selling minimalistic style clothing and accessories.

Being a party stylist, Stoegbauer has any party supply you could need—printables, balloons, décor, cake stands and tableware are just a few of the party essentials she supplies, in a wide range of colors and styles.

The TomKat Studio happily supplies Chandler residents with not only products

for their parties, but different items that could be bought for oneself or as a gift.

“When we opened the retail shop, we expanded our product line to include gifts, stationery and art,” Stoegbauer said. “We want customers to come in on a regular basis to see what is new, not just when they are throwing a party. Whether it is to grab a birthday gift for a girlfriend or a perfect baby shower present, we want to offer them the newest, cutest products.”

These gifts include cell phone cases, prints from local artists, T-shirts, as well as products from Kate Spade and Ban.do. A very popular item this year is the “Best Mom Ever” T-shirt, designed by Stoegbauer herself.

“The coffee at Peixoto is just plain good,” Zamarippa said. “I don’t need a triple quad, double chocolate coffee overload when I come here, a traditional latte is satisfying enough.”

With a successful opening and business off to a great start, Peixoto Coffee hopes to start selling and providing coffee to other local restaurants and shops.

“One of the best parts about this coffee shop is the shop itself,” said Tori Zamarippa. “Enjoying your coffee is better when you’re sitting in a place that feels comfortable.”

The interior is also a photographer’s dream. Chandler photographer Jennifer Jones discovered how great the space was after being suggested by a friend to try an iced mocha.

“As a business owner, I love supporting other locally owned businesses,” Jones

said. “The staff is friendly and were open to me having any potential photo shoots in the lounge.”

Customers are served beverages in Mason jars or glass cups, if they’re consuming on site. The use of glasses and cups help to reduce the amount of paper and plastic wasted.

The mission of Peixoto Coffee is simply to serve really good coffee.

“It’s as fresh as it gets, we don’t do many additives, we just complement the coffee,” said Peixoto Peters.
