Through the Ambassadors, I have made contacts and relationships with others in business that I normally would not have access to or even have knowledge of. Those contacts have generated business, provided information helpful to my business and provided opportunities to give back to the community. The diversity of the Ambassadors and the dedication of each is what make us as successful as we have been.

Ambassadors
The Ambassadors committee is comprised of 49 local business people who are committed to promoting Chamber activities and membership.
Throughout the year, the Ambassadors carry lead roles at the Annual Member Celebration, Annual Golf Outing, Business After Hours, Business After Hours EXTRA!, as well as several others. In addition, they individually survey current Chamber businesses in order to assist Chamber staff in fulfilling the needs of the membership. On average, the Ambassadors attend more than 160 ribbon cuttings and grand openings each year for new and/or existing Chamber members.
This committee is visible at Chamber networking events and is relied upon to help mentor new members on the benefits of the Chamber. The Ambassadors are a vital committee to the Chamber and the Chamber is fortunate for their commitment throughout the year.
