October 11, 2006 GAC Update
There was no October 4 GAC Update because of a problem with the Chamber’s e-mail system and a lack of news. The e-mail is back up and running and the news is the Council meets next Monday and you still have time to register for the GAC Executive Speaker Luncheon on October 24 with MassDevelopment President and CEO Robert Culver.
GAC members are reminded that we are looking for volunteers to join a number of sub-committees proposed at the September 26 GAC meeting. To volunteer or for more information please e-mail Terrence Smith, Director of Government Affairs at tsmith@cambridgechamber.org or phone (617) 876-4213.
