Member of the Month
Dennis Karalow, Connell’s Valet
At the beginning of 2006, Dennis and Connell's
Valet celebrated their 50th year as a member of the
Chamber--making them the longest-running member
in our history! We honor Dennis not only for this
distinction, but for his constant support of our
events. We look forward to another 50 years. . .at
least!
After an extended tour in Viet Nam with the U.S.
Army's 75th Infantry, Dennis returned to his home
town of Vienna where he grew up. In 1976 he took
over full operations of Connell's and has tried to
continue with the same level of service and
commitment that he inherited.

What Are You Missing?
Ron Culberson, President of FUNsulting, Inc. and the
National Speakers Association, made a thought-
provoking and hysterical presentation to Chamber
members and friends at the March 15 Nonprofit
Luncheon at Maggiano’s. Nonprofit members of the
Chamber - on hand to share information about their
work in the community - especially enjoyed
Culberson’s message about finding and creating
humor in everyday life.
