Ambassadors
Our "Chamber Ambassadors" are an active group of Chamber members who serve as the liaison between the Chamber board and staff and the membership at large. To become an Ambassador, you must be a Chamber member for a minimum of 6 months.
Purpose: The Ambassadors serve as liaisons with Chamber membership. They promote Chamber membership through daily contacts and sharing leads. Ambassadors strive to retain members through personal contact to make members feel welcome and appreciated. Our Ambassadors also assist the Membership Director in recruiting new Chamber members.
Obligations
- Attendance at monthly committee meetings (not missing 3 consecutive meetings, or 4 total meetings in a 12 month period).
- Attend a minimum combination of 12 “Business After Hours” and/or “Business Networking Breakfast” functions in each 12 month period.
- Attendance at 50% of all scheduled Ribbon Cuttings is also encouraged.
Welcome Our Members: New & Existing
