Whether you want to help plan community-wide events, greet new businesses or help shape the next generation of leaders, the Chamber offers a number of different committees and groups where you can plug in, gain leadership skills, and feed your passion.
The Ambassadors are an extension of the Chamber who are out and engaged in the community. They are the official welcome team for new members. They can be spotted at ribbon cuttings, greeting new Chamber members and volunteering at events.
We accept applications for new ambassadors in October of each year.
