Description

Join us for the first Legislative Breakfast of the Chamber's fiscal year as we welcome Hon. Keith Wheeler, Illinois state representative of the 50th district.

Wheeler is a sixth-generation resident of Kendall County and lives in Oswego with his family. He grew up in Oswego, graduated from Oswego High School, and graduated from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

For the last 24 years, Wheeler has been a successful small business owner with offices in Oswego and Chicago. He has served the community as the chairman of the National Federation of Independent Business Fox Valley Area Action Council for Small Business, as well as former treasurer of the Oswego Bears Youth Football and Cheer Pop Warner programs.

Perhaps most importantly (editor's note), more recently, Wheeler served as Board Chairman for the Aurora Regional Chamber of Commerce. He states, "I am very proud to have served in (this position) as we must work hard to improve the jobs and business climate in Illinois."

Join us for breakfast and conversation with our elected official. We'll hear what he is working on in Springfield and have discussion on the needs of business and employers in the greater Fox Valley.
