The San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce is honoring what it calls the “Top 10 Lifetime San Diegans.”
(Drum roll, please)
Here they are:
- Developer and philanthropist Malin Burnham.
- San Diego County Supervisors Greg Cox and Dianne Jacob.
- Hotelier Ann Evans
- Kris Michell, a top aide to Mayor Jerry Sanders.
- Restaurateur Ralph Rubio.
- Former Chargers linebacker (and current New England Patriot) Junior Seau.
- Indian gaming leader Danny Tucker.
- Former Port Commissioner Frank Urtasun.
- Congressman Brian Bilbray.
They will be honored in the chamber’s quarterly business magazine, Business Action.
Update: The chamber’s Scott Alevy just called asking if we could update this post. He said emphatically that the chamber went to great lengths not to call this list a “Top 10” and wanted our post to reflect that.
I guess he didn’t read his own press release. The chamber’s own e-mail unveiling the awards announces “Top 10” in the subject line, the headline and two of its four paragraphs.
The headline: “San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce Honors Top 10 Lifetime San Diegans.”
