Ambassadors
As the Chamber is growing, so is its need for Ambassadors. This committee is for those looking for an opportunity to meet others and establish greater visibility for the Chamber and for themselves. This is done through visiting members, attending ribbon cuttings, going to functions, and attending Ambassador Committee meetings. The Chamber is always looking for members who are willing to act as the public relations arm of the Chamber. Further your knowledge and potential of your Chamber membership, gain the opportunity to personally meet hundreds of Chamber and community members, and develop new partnerships on the committee.
