90 Years and Going Strong!

The MGCCI Will Celebrate its 1926 Founding at Golf Outing & Share New Guide With Attendees Prior to Being Mailed to the Public!

So many businesses in the village are helping to support the Morton Grove Chamber of Commerce in its 90th anniversary year that the Chamber wanted to reach out and say "Thank You"!

Keeping an organization going for almost a century is not an easy task. But the Officers, Board and Members of the Morton Grove Chamber of Commerce and Industry, supported by their staff and volunteers, have been doing just that!

"Without these companies who join and support us, there would be no Chamber of Commerce and the choices of our residents of where they could choose to go and dine, shop or play would be greatly diminished." stated MGCCI President Mark Albers (a resident of the village with his family and who is also currently serving as the President of the Morton Grove Library Board of Trustees).

The following list are those actively supporting the 38th Annual Golf Outing (scheduled for June 14 at Chevy Chase Country Club on Milwaukee Avenue) that the Chamber wanted to recognize:

A-Plus Pest Control, Allstate-Cecelia Maiogan, Allstate-Mike Molitor, Alyce Paris Designs, Best Western Hotel, Bringer Inn, Carl Graf-Attorney, Century 21 Marino Real Estate, Chevy Chase Country Club, Classic Design Awards, Chicago Tribune Media/MG Champion-Pioneer Press, Classy Cut Catering, Complete Travel & Cruises, Creative Promotional Products, Dr. Robert Antman, First In Promotions, Greg Bedell-Attorney, House of Torment, Inland Bank, Leading Edge Automotive, Lin-Mar Towing & Recovery, Lou Lang-State Rep, MB Financial Bank, McDonald's Morton Grove, Mather-Lifeways, Minuteman Press, Morton Grove Coin & Collectibles, Morton Grove Foundation, Morton Grove Park District, Morton Grove Public Works Department, Morton Grove Moose 376, North Shore Dental Center, PR Reliable Computer, Procare Family Dental-Perry Danos, Rotary Club of Skokie Valley, Simkins Funeral Home, State Farm-Matt Mitchell, State Farm-Margaret Hagerty, Sewing Center Unlimited, Sparkfactor, Sure-Clean, The Mark Albers Company, U-Haul International-Morton Grove, UPS Store 5078, Williams Roofing, Wolf &Tennant-Frank Tennant.

The Golf Committee Chair and MGCCI Treasurer Jeannine Como (also a resident of Morton Grove) is looking forward to the event in a couple of weeks. She wanted to share that "There's still time to add your name to this list of great businesses helping to make this event a success by golfing, going to the dinner, sponsoring a hole, donating prizes or buying raffle tickets...just call us to find out how!"

This year's golf outing will have a special bonus for those attending. The all new 2016 "Morton Grove Chamber of Commerce Community Guide" that will be mailed to 10,000 households and businesses in the village later in June, will be shared with all those attending the Golf Outing Dinner as a special "first look" opportunity. The guide is being published in conjunction with the Chicago Tribune Media.
