“Today, I rise to recognize the El Dorado Springs Chamber of Commerce, which was honored among the 200 local chambers as the 2016 Missouri Small Chamber of Commerce of the Year. The title is much deserved as the El Dorado Springs Chamber of Commerce, under Executive Director Jackson Tough, has been a leader in promoting economic development, community service, and tourism in the area. I am honored to represent this distinguished organization. With around 125 members, the chamber has created a number of initiatives to better its community, including the ``Clean-Up ElDo Mo'' project to keep the city pristine, a youth scholarship fund to make sure tomorrow's leaders have the opportunities they need today, and a social media initiative ``Be in the Know about ElDo Mo'' to raise awareness about this wonderful city and its residents. Communities like El Dorado Springs are the foundation of Missouri and our way of life. Thanks to the hard work and dedication of these chamber leaders, we continue to sustain and strengthen our communities. I applaud the chamber's work to grow and sustain its community, recognizing its specific assets and opportunities, and I congratulate the chamber on all its accomplishments. ____________________”
