Set for Monday, June 4 at the Pecan Grove Plantation
Country Club, the tournament Title Sponsor this year is not
one business, but a newly formed group of six!
Working with Board of Directors Chairman, Marvin Marcell
of Group 1 Automotive, Chamber CEO Gail Parker arranged a
meeting of the six well-known new car dealerships that front
a one to two mile stretch of U.S. 59 in Rosenberg and
Richmond. The group, comprised of Ron Ewer and Bill Canon of
Legacy Ford-Lincoln-Mercury, Pat Goldwait of Fort Bend
Toyota, Jana Kusin and Dan Wernitznig of Gillman
Honda-Mazda-Nissan, Vince Finnegan of
Finnegan Dodge-Chrysler-Jeep, Jim Kissinger and Doug Hancock
of Jim Jard Buick-Chevrolet-GMC-Pontiac-Cadillac, Ernie
Guzman and Angel Arredondo of Ernie Guzman Hyundai, met
recently to solidify their unity for the Chamber. With
electric enthusiasm, the entire group not only eagerly
bonded for the Chamber's Golf Classic, but also realized the
value of their newfound collaboration to each dealership and
to the community.
The "Rose-Rich Auto Mile" delivers a selection far
superior to other metropolitan areas, with 16 different
makes of new automobiles offered to Fort Bend County
residents and visitors from every surrounding county and far
beyond. With significant ease and limited traffic congestion
to contend with, customers in the market for a new car,
truck, or SUV can enjoy the closest thing to one-stop
shopping anywhere around! The dealers have worked closely to
ensure no duplication, instead bringing an impressive
variety of options to area consumers.
Watch for more great things to come from the
Rosenberg-Richmond Area Chamber of Commerce and the
Rosenberg-Richmond Auto Network!

Ready to golf! Marvin Marcell of Group
1 Automotive and Board Chairman of the Rosenberg-Richmond
