Team Haverhill—celebrating its 20th anniversary transforming Haverhill—is taking home the Greater Haverhill Chamber of Commerce’s top honor next month.
The Charles E. Billups Award, the Chamber’s most prestigious honor since 1985, goes to the nonprofit civic organization during the Chamber’s 110th Annual Dinner.
Team Haverhill is the brainchild of Sally Cerasuolo-O’Rorke, who was the president of the Greater Haverhill Chamber of Commerce when the group was founded. It has since become its own all-volunteer, independent nonprofit.
Charles E. Billups served Essex County Gas Co., a natural gas utility, for 35 years, retiring as chairman of the board. He also served the Chamber as a director, president and treasurer; Bradford College as a trustee; and many other organizations.
Major honors also go to Penelope Guerrero, receiving the Jerry Loy Outstanding Director of the Year Award; Kerri Perry and Community Action, Elaine Barker Community Leadership Award; and George Peters of New England Invents and Pinnacle Place, Chamber Service Award.
The Greater Haverhill Chamber of Commerce annual meeting takes place Thursday, June 11, from 5:30-9 p.m., at Haverhill Country Club, 58 Brickett Lane, Haverhill. The night includes networking, dinner and a wine tasting. Admission is $150 per person for Chamber members and $165 each for non-members and available online at HaverhillChamber.com.
