Ambassadors
Meets on the 1st Thursday of each month at Chamber Member Investor businesses
8:00 - 9:00 a.m.
The Menomonie Area Chamber & Visitor Center Ambassadors are an exclusive group of volunteers that plays an essential role in Chamber Member Investor communication and retention. Ambassadors believe in the Chamber's mission, support their community, and provide assistance for many of the Chamber's activities and events. Ambassadors have the opportunity to not only represent and promote the Chamber, but to connect and engage with other members, local elected officials, and key business stakeholders, while also promoting their own business at various Chamber events.

As an Ambassador, you have the opportunity to fabulous networking opportunities and multiple benefits for you and your business.
