If there is one thing I have learned serving as your Chamber President, it is that the one true critical ingredient that is needed to make any chamber successful is YOU. Dedicated people who commit to volunteering their time, energy, and expertise…it’s the one true difference-maker in any good Chamber.
With this in mind I am seeking community-minded people to join us in our efforts and be a part of various committee opportunities we have. We need volunteers to assist our board with things like recruiting members, planning fun events, and communicating with our membership. I am calling out to you in search of fresh ideas and your energy to keep our chamber thriving and vibrant.
Please reach out to me directly at aidan_hand@keybank.com or contact us through our website. I look forward to hearing from you!
