5 Key Learnings from our Membership Luncheon with Leaders

February 18, 2019 by Ryan Hecht Leave a Comment

Last Wednesday, the Arvada Chamber of Commerce welcomed community leaders for an engaging and insightful membership luncheon. Hosted inside the Lamar Street Center, members learned about the top priorities and projects of some of the city’s most influential people. Thank you to all the community leaders who sat down with our members: Shelley Cook (RTD), A.J. DeAndrea (Arvada Police Department), Bob Loveridge (Arvada Fire Protection District), Jean Gordon (Arvada Visitors Center), Joe Hengstler (Olde Town Arvada Business Improvement District), Lauri Dannemiller (Apex Park & Recreation District), Jeremy Gregory (Arvada Chamber of Commerce), Maureen Phair (Arvada Urban Renewal Association), Marcus Turner (Arvada Center for the Arts & Humanities), and Daniel Ryley (Arvada Economic Development Association).

For those unable to attend, below are five key takeaways from the luncheon:

  • Looking to voice your opinions or ask questions about the City of Arvada’s projects? The City wants to hear from you and created the online engagement platform Speak Up Arvada to gather community input. Visit SpeakUp.Arvada.org to sign up and speak up!

  • For the 2019-2020 theatre season, the Arvada Center for the Arts & Humanities is introducing a new package for young professionals which will reduce the cost of theater tickets to about $20 per show.

  • The Arvada Fire Protection District partnered with the PulsePoint smartphone app and has seen first-hand numerous citizen responders use it to help save lives. Once someone downloads this free app and sets Arvada Fire as their host location, the app alerts the user if a person in a nearby public place goes into cardiac arrest and needs hands-only CPR. To register, search “PulsePoint Foundation” in your app store.

  • Shelly Cook at RTD had one major non-G-line update: RTD has recently partnered with Uber to provide one access point to allow riders to plan trips and buy tickets from within the ride-sharing company’s app. Learn more here.

  • If the Ford Super Bowl commercial featuring the Arvada Police Department caught you off guard, you weren’t alone. Sergeant A.J. DeAndrea says the police department was informed of the commercial two weeks in advance, but had no idea it was going to air during the big game.

Please join us for our next Member Luncheon on June 5: “Becoming a Catalytic Leader.”
