This week was packed with community connection, business development, advocacy updates, and exciting celebrations across the Chamber— proof that around here, the calendar stays as busy as the coffee pot.

 

Last Friday, CEO Ananda Rochita was proud to participate in and support the 29th Annual Mayor's Cup at Woodcreek Golf Club, where more than 150 golfers gathered to support Roseville kids and families.

The competition was fierce, with our team posting a solid 64, and the overall gross score winner coming in at an impressive 60. Ananda was thrilled to take home the Longest Drive title on the women's side, with Rob Cline claiming the honor for the men's — well deserved!

Beyond the competition, it was a beautiful day to connect with members and the broader Roseville community in support of a cause that truly matters. Congratulations to all the participants and organizers who made the 29th Mayor's Cup another memorable event!

 

Your Membership Team continued building momentum this week, supporting 20+ business owners at the monthly EDG (Entrepreneur Development Group) on Tuesday led by Brian Gladden, CEO of Strategy & Innovation Institute, and Marcie Shelton, owner of The Leader's Partner. The session provided valuable insight and support for local entrepreneurs focused on growing and strengthening their businesses.

On Wednesday, the Membership team met with the Ambassadors for their monthly lunch meeting that was catered by Delish Pizza to share with them updates on member resources, workshops and events so they can better serve our members. Then it was off to the Happy Hour at Legends at Woodcreek Golf Course. It was a beautiful night connecting, collaborating and hearing from our featured non-profit, All Clutter Aside.

Also on Wednesday, Ananda and Director of Public Affairs Brooke Whiting attended the State of the County Address given by Placer County District 2 Supervisor, Shanti Landon at Sun City in Lincoln Hills. Placer County achieved many wins in 2025 relating to economic development, improving our workforce initiatives through connecting veterans to civilian careers, and accomplishing major projects to keep our rivers clean. Congressman Kevin Kiley presented a $1,000,000 check to County of Placer to help improve transportation along Baseline and Riego Roads, going toward the installment of three traffic signals and stop sign removal at Natomas and Riego Rd. It was a wonderful event full of connection and celebrating 175 years of Placer County’s legacy!

 

The chamber celebrated Tutu School of Roseville with a Ribbon Cutting on Thursday, and welcomed six new members this week:

• Good Life Construction
• Ambassadore Health Care-Sacramento, Inc.
• Milou and Olin Photography
• Chevy's
• SK Collective
• Cosmoforge

 

On the advocacy front, the Chamber is monitoring California Senate Bill 951, which would require employers with more than 100 employees to provide 90 days’ notice before workforce reductions tied to AI or automation. The bill would also require state notification when positions are permanently replaced by AI and prioritize affected employees for open roles. As California continues to shape policy around emerging technology, businesses should stay informed on how these changes may impact workforce planning and compliance.

In addition, manufacturers should be aware of an important compliance deadline under California Senate Bill 54. By June 1, 2026, qualifying producers with more than $1 million in annual revenue must register under the state’s packaging law. This applies broadly to companies producing, selling, or distributing single-use packaging or plastic food service ware in California, including certain business-to-business and transport packaging. Companies must register through Circular Action Alliance or CalRecycle by the deadline to avoid potential compliance and enforcement issues.

 

And finally— don’t wait on Placer Valley 2026 tickets. Current pricing ends May 14, just two weeks before the event, and tickets are moving fast. With nearly 100 hydroponic gardens valued at $450 each up for grabs, plus raffle baskets from participating vendors ranging from $250 to $1,000, this is shaping up to be a high-energy regional event you won’t want to miss.

For those looking to elevate the experience, VIP upgrades unlock more than $100 in added value, including exclusive insider access to the Placer One art projects, complimentary massages from reTreat Salon and Spa, and curated extras from Red Wing Shoes. Safe to say, this is one of those events where showing up pays off—sometimes literally. Register for tickets HERE.
