Spring is upon us, and as the
weather is changing and leaves are
growing, so is the Boardman Chamber.
We are pleased and excited to
welcome our new Executive Director,
Emily Waite. Emily is making the
rounds to meetings and committees,
getting to know Boardman and the
surrounding area. Please help us by
making her feel welcome and
supported as she brings new ideas
and experiences to our Chamber.
While we usher in a new CEO, we say
good bye to our Assistant Director,
Amber Killingbeck. Amber has done a
tremendous body of work while at the
chamber, establishing our store,
planning and coordinating our events
and luncheons and many other things.
Amber is moving on to exciting times
and new opportunities for her own
family. She will be greatly missed and
we wish her all the best in her future
endeavors.
We had a great turnout for our
Frostbite Golf Tournament. Thank you
to everyone who participated and
sponsored holes and made donations.
Our local students greatly appreciate
the support and scholarships.
