Legacy Awards Gala

ChamberWest was pleased to honor the following businesses in our community last week at the chamber's annual Award Gala. ChamberWest was pleased to have Miss Utah 2010 - Christina Lowe as our Emcee. These businesses are examples of creating a legacy in our community. Many have invested into new buildings and adding local jobs, others have continually supported the community they are in.
West Valley City Business of the Year: Valley Fair Mall. You can't miss the makeover the mall has made over the past two years. New stores, new restaurants (like chamber member NYPD Pizzaria) and more.

Taylorsville Business of the Year: Nelson Labs. Nelson Labs just built a new building despite the economy and is a fixture in the City of Taylorsville. They'll be adding a number of jobs over the next few months as their business expands. They were one of the business that helped the City of Taylorsville have the highest year in building permit valuations in the history of the city.

Kearns Business of the Year: All Points Home Inspections. Al Rickard and his crew have been growing every year since he started 10 years ago. All Points can perform a variety of inspections in your home to keep your family safe.

ChamberWest Business of the Year: Kearns Oquirrh Park Fitness Center. The KOPFC has been a fixture in Kearns since the early 60s. It now includes 9 pools, park and trail system. Construction continues to build a world class facility as a cover is being prepared to be installed over the outdoor 50m pool for year round swimming fun.

Volunteer of the Year: Asenath Horton is the Volunteer of the Year and has taken our Women in Business committee to new levels. She owns Salt Lake Builders, a Taylorsville business, with her husband, Brock.

Legacy Award: Pioneer Valley Hospital. Since 1980, this hospital has been providing services to our greater community as well as giving back to the community in many ways. Pioneer Valley has one of the busiest ER's in the state and just a couple of years ago built an entire new ER to provide better service to their patients. The hospital has created a legacy in our community over the past 30 years.

We hope you'll come next fall for the 2011 Legacy Community Awards Gala
