Dear Community and Chamber Members,
After much thought and planning, I have made the decision to retire from my role as President of the Chamber in early 2026. This is an emotional moment for me — I truly love what I do, feel blessed to work alongside such amazing people, and am proud to serve this wonderful community.
It has been an incredible 13 years leading this organization, and I am honored by all we have accomplished together. The Chamber stands on a strong foundation, and, thanks to our talented staff, dedicated volunteers, and engaged members, it remains vibrant and well-positioned for continued success. I believe the time is right for new leadership to guide the Chamber into its next chapter.
While I will be stepping away, I am not going far. I look forward to volunteering and lending support. The Chamber will always hold a special place in my heart — I am simply looking forward to a little less of it in my head! This has been a fabulous journey, and I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to serve this community, work with an extraordinary team, and be part of an organization that makes such a difference. I will miss it more than words can express, but I know the Chamber’s future is bright — and I can’t wait to see what comes next.
With heartfelt appreciation,
Becky
