Letter From the President
Our Motto for 2023 "YOU are the heart of the community"
Dear Chamber Members:
It is with humility and a great love for this community, I accepted re-appointment to lead the Board of Directors as Chamber President for 2023. As I have stated in the past, the chamber represents the heartbeat of our business community. We want to carry-forth with that beat throughout 2023.
The new year continues to bring with it new challenges, but I know we are up to the task. Several board members' terms of service expired at the end of 2022, we express our sincere appreciation for their service and support. We had more recommendations for new members than places to fill and we welcome all the new members to the Board. The members of the chamber are good, hard-working and enthusiastic people ready to serve you. Collectively, we are dedicated in serving, not only the needs of the community at large, but focusing on growing and protecting the businesses' interest, as well.
This past year brought many opportunities and unexpected challenges. In spite of the frustrations and disappointments experienced, we were able to make “lemonade out of lemons” and overcome some of the obstacles. To name a few, in February, the Chamber hosted its annual Membership Banquet. We also had a very successful Pioneer Days in September, with a week long of activities. We hosted the Annual Tri-County Independence Day Celebration July 4. The Chamber was able to host Christmas events during the month of December, along with the ‘Letter to Santa’ campaign. The Chamber Board, Officers, Chamber Link Volunteers, and Executive Director worked tirelessly to constantly think outside the box for ideas to promote activity in the community. I give them all the credit and thank them for all their hard work.
We are now faced with a new year and are hopeful that the Chamber will be able to continue to promote events that will bring more shoppers, clients, and customers to your places of business. We strive to have your support and confidence that ‘your’ chamber is serving you well and striving to make this the greatest community to live, work, shop and play.
The Chamber moto for 2023 is “YOU aare the heart of the community” and make 2023 a safe and prosperous year for all of us.
Sincerely,
James W. Wallace
President, Pittsburg-Camp County Chamber Board of Directors
