An Opportunity For You...
Every so often, a chamber member distinguishes him or herself by showing an exceptional dedication to the success of the chamber and its events. Such members qualify for consideration as Chamber Ambassadors. They have a very special place in the continued prosperity of the chamber they represent and, by extension, the success of the community in which they live and work.

Chamber Ambassadors are exactly what the term implies. They help members in fully realizing the benefits of their membership. At the same time, Ambassadors also serve as a conduit for information back to the Chamber officers and staff, helping the chamber to gain a better understanding of its members� needs and how best to meet those needs.  You'll find these dedicated chamber volunteers welcoming newcomers at Networking at Noon and Business After Hours , as well as at Grand Openings and Ribbon Cuttings.

Each month, the Chamber recognizes a member who goes above and beyond the call of duty with its "Ambassador" status. Ambassadors enjoy public recognition in the Chamber�s monthly "BusinessLinks" newsletter, on the Chamber website, and at all chamber events in which they participate. They also win prizes and, once a year at the Chamber�s annual Business Awards Luncheon, one of their number is singled out with the honor of "Ambassador of The Year."Although the position may bring with it no paycheck, it is not without compensation, for chamber Ambassadors enjoy the satisfaction of knowing that they�re working directly for the growth and development of the community they love. 

For more information about becoming an Ambassador, or to nominate a member for this special status, please contact PAACC Membership Director Michelle Kreutzer at [email protected].
