Weekly Opportunities: September 2026, Week 5

September is wrapping up, but there is plenty happening around the Greater EMC Chamber. We have barbecue, new businesses to welcome, and one more Leading Ladies Luncheon before the year is out.

Chicks and Hogs Is This Saturday

Family Promise of Lake Houston, our video sponsor this month, is bringing the community together for Chicks and Hogs on Saturday, October 3. If you love a good barbecue brew-off, make sure you have your ticket.

Thank you to the event sponsors and community partners helping make it happen, including Insperity, Frost, Easy Fiber, and Memorial Hermann Northeast.

Help Us Welcome New Chamber Members

There are three opportunities to celebrate local organizations opening their doors:

• Texas Physio Physical Therapy and Wellness: Join us for a ribbon cutting at 4 p.m. at its new location on FM 1314.
• Rapid Care Emergency Room: Celebrate its new location with a ribbon cutting on Wednesday at 11:30 a.m., also on FM 1314. That corridor is booming!
• Health Center of Southeast Texas: Come to the grand opening of its new Roman Forest location on Monday, October 5, at 11:30 a.m.

Save Your Seat for the Final Leading Ladies Luncheon

Our last Leading Ladies Luncheon of the year, presented by Memorial Hermann Northeast, is coming up on October 27. Join us at the Atrium from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. for a panel discussion with women leaders. Be sure to grab your ticket so you do not miss it.
