Over 300 business and community leaders gathered at the prestigious Boca Raton Resort & Club where the Greater Boca Raton Chamber of Commerce (GBRCC) held its 2010 Business Awards Luncheon.
This year’s event was held to honor Bobra Bush of Telcom Corporation and Telcare Corporation (2010 Small Business Leader of the Year), Charles Shane of Bryason Realty Group (2010 Business Leader of the Year), and Lynn University (2010 Business of the Year).
When Charles Shane started his business in Boca Raton in 2000, the Chamber helped him get more engaged in the community. Shane spoke of the need for resiliency and kindness in tough times.
“We are all in this together, “he said, “Trying to keep our businesses afloat in turbulent financial waters. All we can do is work harder than ever, and utilize our cash reserves and lines of credit judiciously, until the economy rebounds. It is never easy, especially in the midst of a troubled economy. Just don’t give up!”
