Overview
Chamber Ambassadors are an energetic group of people who work to maintain contact with Chamber members while helping to promote the Chamber as a whole. They work on a variety of projects which include the annual Bear Paw Festival, the Spring Tea for Beautification, the Chamber Annual Dinner, luncheon forums and the famous Winter Wonderland and Merry Merchant Munch. Chamber ambassadors regularly attend other Member Functions and Events and represent the Chamber of Commerce.
Chamber Ambassadors volunteer their own time to help promote Chamber and the well-being of our community. Some individuals have the formal title of "Chamber Ambassadors," but many others are doing this service without regular acknowledgement. We want to thank all those with whom have graciously volunteered their time to assist the Chamber in a variety of duties.
