CRAIG A. GOLDMAN of texas in the house of representatives Wednesday, February 25, 2026 Mr. GOLDMAN of Texas. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and congratulate the Parker County Chamber of Commerce on the occasion of its 30th anniversary. The Chamber [[Page E166]] was founded with the purpose of promoting business development and economic growth within a budding region of our state. Over the past three decades, it has grown into a thriving organization that exemplifies community leadership, advocacy, and economic expansion. This significant milestone reflects the dedication, perseverance, and service of countless local business owners, leaders, and volunteers who have contributed to the Chamber's enduring success. The Parker County Chamber of Commerce was established through the vision and leadership of Mr. Randy Keck, along with Judge Graham Quisenberry and Mr. Roy Ray. From its humble beginnings--holding potluck meetings in an RV park, acquiring two small-town chamber charters, and building a foundation grounded in a clear understanding of the needs of local businesses--the Chamber experienced immediate and sustained growth. Today, its culture reflects the spirit of Parker County and encourages participation from more than 600 members. This distinctive and inclusive structure draws business owners together and fosters continued engagement throughout the year. Through networking opportunities, civic involvement, ribbon cuttings, and community festivals, the Parker County Chamber of Commerce consistently strengthens both its members and the community it serves. As the Parker County Chamber of Commerce marks this 30-year anniversary, I commend its leadership and members for their lasting contributions to the economic vitality and civic life of Parker County. On behalf of the 12th Congressional District of Texas, I am proud to extend my congratulations to the Parker County Chamber of Commerce on the momentous occasion of its 30th anniversary and offer best wishes for many continued years of success in the Chamber's future. ____________________ |
