âWithout the small business community, we wouldnât have the heart and soul of New Braunfels,â said Stephen Brockman, the Chamberâs vice president of leadership and small business. âAlthough this is very different from last May, I think itâs more important than ever as we rebound and recover from the pandemic to support those local businesses.
