A NOTE FROM THE BOARD CHAIR
Chamber Members, welcome to April.
Your Chamber’s board of directors and staff have been busy crafting our 5-year Strategic Plan. Our four primary strategies focus on Dynamic Growth, Established Identity, Strong Partnerships, and Organizational Excellence. The approved plan is centered on serving the many needs of our current and future members. We are financially sound and plan to remain that way. We are excited to work through our four main strategies and share more this year.
