As we move forward, the Board of Directors is working diligently to ensure a smooth transition and continued success for our members and community. We have recently regained full access to the membership database, allowing us to resume communication with all Chamber members.

In the interim, the board is addressing both immediate and long-term operational needs.

Additionally, we are reviewing upcoming events to ensure all necessary preparations are in place.

A formal job posting for the Chamber President position will be announced soon. Our goal is to identify, interview, and hire the right candidate as quickly as possible to continue the Chamber’s strong tradition of service and community impact."
