West Orange Chamber Big Orange Awards

Another year over and a new one just begun! Many will recognize this phrase as a lyric from a holiday favorite; one I enjoyed hearing many times. Each time I heard it, I asked myself, “Where did another year go and how is it that I am going on 15 years at the West Orange Chamber (WOCC)?”

The past year and 14 others seemed to go by in the blink of an eye. Yet, individuals and organizations that have bettered our greater West Orange community filled that blink with countless experiences and accomplishments. These individuals and organizations, along with our growing membership of more than 1,050 businesses, also helped the WOCC earn our third distinction as the state of Florida Chamber of the Year.

We will celebrate our success and our community champions with flair on Jan. 29 at the Walt Disney World Contemporary Resort as we present our “Big Orange Awards.” This past year’s recipients are names you will recognize. Join us in celebrating their accomplishments.

THE CHAIRMAN’S AWARD: Apple Air Conditioning & Heating, Inc.
