Message From The President—LSRAA Celebrates 25 Years
“What we have done for ourselves alone dies with us; what we have done for others and the world remains and is immortal.”—Albert Pike
Twenty-five years ago, a great tradition was started in Santa Rosa. The Chamber introduced the Leadership Santa Rosa program. The graduates of this program are now serving our community in a variety of ways. We are active in Chamber activities, serve on the Boards and committees of many nonprofit organizations, and volunteer in numerous roles.
Through our 700 program graduates, Leadership Santa Rosa provides a continuing pipeline of educated and dedicated leaders, who function as agents of change, who contributes to the continued growth and prosperity of our community and region.
Did you know that the Thursday Night Market was started as a LSR Class Project? If you would like to know more, don’t miss the BBQ/Picnic on June 17th at SaraLee Vineyards. Another wonderful and fun event is the 3rd Annual Dick Osborn Golf Tournament on May 20th at the Windsor Golf Course.
Through LSRAA, I have made so many new friendships and have discovered the many ways that the LSR graduates have improved the community through their leadership efforts. I believe that the future belongs to those who shape it Thank you all for helping to shape LSRAA and our community.
Mary Bates, President
