Who was it that said so many people ….so little time.

This week we celebrate Thanksgiving and I want to take this opportunity to offer my thanks. First, thank you to our membership. Because each of you are so committed to your role in your businesses and professions you make this place special. Thank you for your investment in our community, your growth in jobs, and your desire to always go the extra mile.

Next, thank you goes to all our new area investors and project creators. You have made 2018 a great year for new businesses and expansion. We welcome you!

I have to say thank you to our team. You are a great group to work with and I wouldn’t have it any other way. We learn from each other, stay focused on making this the best area possible, and have a lot of fun doing it!

Thank you to all our area partners. Each of you plays a crucial role developing our people, products, environment, communities, and opportunities. Thank you to the cities of Cape, Jackson, and Scott. Thanks also to Cape County, Old Town Cape, Southeast Missouri State University, the local public school systems, and more.

Finally, I want to thank KRCU for this great partnership. Each week I have the opportunity to relay an important business topic to this key listener group. The comments I receive make me realize the importance of this segment.

I’m a thankful John Mehner.

John Mehner is the former President and CEO of the Cape Chamber.
