2020 Ambassador Appreciation: Leaders in our Business Community
T
he Scotts Valley Chamber Ambassadors are a team of small business owners and community influencers who support ALL small businesses and invite them to participate in the robust opportunities the Chamber provides. The Ambassador team meets once a month and commits to attend Business Networking Mixers, Grand-Opening Red Ribbon Ceremonies, Membership Luncheons and community gatherings and events. Ambassadors introduce and create connections for individuals in all types of business industries to open doors to new customers, clients and services that help them grow their business. These energetic individuals are the Chamber’s core planning
committee members for two of Scotts Valley’s signature annual events, the Scotts Valley Art Wine & Beer Festival and the Community Awards Gala. We are grateful for these wonderful community leaders
that are all stewards of goodwill and shining stars! The greatest return for being an Ambassador is the development of a rich network of business friends and acquaintances that will pay returns for years to come.
