Last night, at the Boathouse Restaurant in our own backyard of Saugatuck, the Chamber of Commerce hosted their 1st Citizen Awards Dinner. Nestled into the first citizen honorees were three students from Staples High School being recognized as Young Entrepreneurs. Among them, was myself!
The Boathouse provided a lovely atmosphere for the event, and even the 90 degree heat didn't hinder the fun. After keynote speaker David Pogue spoke about the uncertainty of the relationship between the labor market and AI, the awards commenced.
Being honored alongside other individuals of such caliber was humbling. I said a few words thanking the ongoing help of my membership with the Chamber of Commerce, as well as some background on Bar 'Bucha and our performance thus far.
This is an exciting time of year, and receiving this award is something very special to me. There's something about being honored for work that I consider my passion, and having so many others share my joy with me.
A big thank you to Matthew Mandell, the executive director and president of the Chamber. He has been by my side since Bar 'Bucha's inception, and I am lucky to have him as a mentor.
