Chamber Board will be Holding Elections

The Mansfield Chamber of Commerce has elections coming up.

There is one post empty at present which was held by Mardie L. who decided to reduce her obligations. Two posts are expiring; those held by Judy Lorenz and Sheri “Staci” Alsup.

Judy says she has been on the board for several years. “I’ve enjoyed the experience and support the Chamber, but there are others in the community who could serve and enjoy the community involvement; I’m going to step aside so they can have a chance.” If you just felt a tap on your shoulder when you were reading that statement, you are one of those people who have talent and wisdom to offer your community — contact the Chamber at 924-3525 or someone on the board to get your chance.
