Chamber Ambassadors are volunteers from the Chamber community that serve on welcome committees, help with membership campaigns and act as public relations liaisons related to networking/social events sponsored by the Chamber. Ambassadors assist in maximizing Chamber benefits and support a diverse business community by offering a strong network of advocates and mentors. They reach out to current members to help them utilize their membership, assist in recruiting new members and welcome guests at all Chamber functions. They also take the lead at Chamber ribbon-cuttings and grand openings.
Special recognition and thank you to TitanProz for their support of the Ambassador Committee. If you are interested in getting involved and developing deeper ties within the community as well as sharpening your leadership skills, join the committee!
