“We stand as the voice of business, we support our members’ success, and we champion community prosperity.”

---

The Washington County Chamber of Commerce will focus on the four main virtues of Washington County to equip the area businesses with the ability to grow, become more nimble, and leverage the ever changing business climate and community environment so the changes can work for them instead of against them. The four core values identified by Washington County Chamber of Commerce members this year are our concern for and investment in our youth, our historical heritage, our friendly small town atmosphere, and our locally owned businesses.

Conscious of the preservation of these four core values, the Washington County Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors will pursue our stated purpose, “We stand as the voice of Business, we support our members’ success, and we champion community prosperity”, with integrity, transparency, and dedication to the common direction that the entire active organization establishes with and for us.

Washington County has a strong foundation of a well established infrastructure. An area critical care unit, a robust church network, very active civic organizations, dynamic community foundations, plentiful recreational facilities in the Y.M.C.A., fairgrounds, parks, hiking trails, lakes, area schools, and good information systems in the local newsprint and radio stations; this all compliments the four core values to round out a community we can be proud of and that deserves our devoted husbandry to ensure its future economic and environmental health for our future generations.

The 2008-2009 Board is dedicated to ensuring the Chamber of Commerce establishes a strong organizational foundation, a genuine understanding of the voice of business, a framework where no one personalized agenda trumps the whole and an intense team effort that will help guide the direction of the Chamber for the next year.
