Ambassadors Rock!

Ambassadors are a group of enthusiastic volunteers who offer support at various Chamber functions, build member engagement and raise awareness of Chamber activities and benefits. Ambassadors grow professionally and personally by building business relationships within the community. Ambassadors serve as the first point of contact for new members and Being an Ambassador is a fun and rewarding opportunity for you and your business.

Small Business Council

Small, Independent business owners are who formed the chamber and the primary reason we exist today. Independent businesses need an organization to collaborate through and the chamber offers that vechicle. The Small Business Council is an opportunity for businesses to meet with other like minded business owners to talk out everything from what works to the challenges of running a small business. Everything from policy to training to best practices and open discussion are included. The Council helps to keep issues that are pertinent to business at the top of the agenda with solutions to address those challengs. For more information, visit the Small Business Council here.
