  • Board of Directors

The St. Francis Area Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors is committed to working hard for you, to maintain and improve our area’s economic vitality and represent the business community on local and state issues.

The Chamber is run by a volunteer board of directors elected by the chamber membership. Various committees also help plan chamber events and activities. The Chamber employs a part-time service representative who manages the day-to-day operations of the Chamber.

The Chamber makes a profit only through membership dues and two annual fundraisers. That money goes back into Chamber events and projects to benefit members and the community.

The Chamber board meets the third Wednesday of every month at 11 a.m. at the St. Francis Community Center (next to city hall). Meetings are open to all. Visit the events page for upcoming locations.
