The Bryan/College Station Chamber of Commerce took off from Easterwood Airport about 6:40 Monday morning with a group of 22 local representatives headed to Washington D.C.
Click to hear WTAW’s Chris Clift talk with BCS Chamber President and CEO Royce Hickman:
Part of Monday’s schedule included a trip to talk with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.
Hickman says tomorrow his group will break up into six teams to talk with as many policymakers as possible.
While the delegation will visit the usual suspects like Texas politicians in D.C., their agenda is very broad including a number of people from other states across the U.S.
Tuesday evening for the group will conclude with a Segway tour of the nation’s capital, and that tour will be conducted by an Aggie owned business.
We will hear more from the BCS Chamber group in Washington Tuesday night after their daily activities have concluded.
