Campbell leaders drop bombshell on business owner
Brooke Ramirez honored by Chamber, downtown association.
Community leader honored
A longtime Campbell business owner is being recognized for her community leadership by both the Campbell Chamber of Commerce and the Downtown Campbell Business Association (DCBA).
The Chamber named Bombshell Boutique owner Brooke Ramirez Citizen of the Year for her “outstanding contributions to the community of Campbell,” while the DCBA is honoring her for her contributions “toward making downtown Campbell the place that it is.”
“One event at a time and one year at a time, a rotating cast of characters kept working together to create culture in downtown Campbell, and Brooke’s been one of those characters the entire time,” reads a post on the DCBA website.
Bombshell Boutique will celebrate 18 years in business later this year; the women’s clothing store has been located in downtown Campbell for almost all of that time.
