We are now past the halfway point of 2010 as well as the
Chamber fiscal year. Many of our goals and objectives are being met even as we journey through the hot summer months.
Our 2010 theme, Working Together Works, was proven true
several times in June, but nowhere more pointedly than with
the 4th annual Drag Boat Races. A dedicated Committee, over
400 other volunteers, 30 sponsors and a dozen very dediBryan Horner
cated staff members pulled off the biggest and best ShowChairman of the Board
down in San Angelo yet at Lake Nasworthy June 25-27.
We will let our members know when parts of our races will
be scheduled for viewing on the Speed Channel.
At the June 8 monthly luncheon, SAISD Superintendent Dr. Carol Ann Bonds and
Director of Bond Planning and Construction Steve Van Hoozer gave members an
update on the progress of $117 million in renovations and expansion in the District resulting from the 2008 School Bond election, as well as academic improvements that will result in the District receiving its first “Recognized” status from
the State later this year. Sponsors Cano’s Diamond’s, Grigsby’s Boutique/Merle
Norman Cosmetics, and SKG Engineering made this standing room only event at
Bentwood Country Club possible. A very good crowd also joined us at the LeGrand Alumni Center June 22 for the ASU Alumni Association Business After
Hours, cosponsored by Chartwells Catering, A-B Distributing, Julios, Coca Cola
and Pinkies Liquor Stores. Thank you for supporting these events, and as usual,
we’re taking a break from these monthly membership functions in July and returning in August.
Leadership San Angelo graduated its 27th class last month, and Lynsey Flage received the Bob Diebitsch Leadership Alumni Award. The graduating class recognized Sandra Pomroy for an outstanding first year of staffing the program, as well
as Peggy Arnold for her years of dedication to the program. To date, 737 individuals have completed the program.

From the Economic
Development Division
Chamber Hires New
VP of Marketing & Recruitment
The role of Vice President of Marketing & Recruiting in the Economic Development Division of the
Chamber will be filled by John P. Dugan, effective July 19th.
John Dugan
Vice President of
Marketing & Recruiting
Dugan spent six years working in economic development for the City of Abilene, where his responsibilities included Director of Business Services and Downtown Manager. He worked with existing and
new companies of all sizes to help them locate and grow while creating jobs and tax base in Abilene.
He currently works with TX-Econ in McKinney, Texas, an economic development company assisting
businesses and communities with economic development projects. Prior to that, he spent two years
helping Valliance Bank start up in McKinney.
“John has an excellent track record in job retention and creation, and very good marketing skills”
noted Phil Neighbors, San Angelo Chamber President. “His work with the Development Corporation of Abilene has provided him a variety of experience in evaluating private company financial information, interaction with community boards, and exposure to numerous
state and federal programs that are important to San Angelo. He is also a certified Economic Development Finance Professional,” added
Neighbors.
Chosen from a field of 18 applicants by a five-member selection committee comprised of Chamber and COSADC representatives, Dugan
emerged as the best candidate among four finalists to meet the requirements of the marketing and recruitment position. Fred Key, Chairman of the Chamber’s Economic Development Council and a Selection Committee member, called attention to Dugan’s marketing skills
and community involvement in both McKinney and Abilene. “His leadership positions with the McKinney Chamber of Commerce demonstrate his strong desire to return to full time community development, and his West Texas roots make him a good fit for San Angelo,”
said Key.
Dugan is a native of West Texas, born and raised in the Abilene area where he and his family still have ranching interests in Callahan
County near Clyde. He holds a Bachelor of Applied Science degree from Abilene Christian University and spent many years in the banking industry in the area. He and his wife, Stephanie, have three grown children and will soon become grandparents.
Dugan begins at the Chamber July 19. “I look forward to returning to the West Texas environment and especially becoming part of such
a vibrant community,” Dugan stated. “San Angelo has been very welcoming thus far, and I am excited about the opportunities and business climate in the area. I find great challenge and reward in working with diverse entities to create partnerships that result in job creation and retention. San Angelo has a promising future, and I am very enthusiastic about putting down roots there.”
