Amherst Collage

"Joining the Amherst Chamber has been the most lucrative investment for business development and networking opportunities of any of the numerous organizations I have participated in. Since becoming a member, I have made it a priority to join a Pro-Net group and attend the monthly Business After Hours events. I can't think of a better way to have fun, make friends and most important Grow Your Business!"

 

- Erin Rouse, Account Executive, IDAmerica

Councils & Committees

The Amherst Chamber of Commerce prides itself on being an inclusive organization. We strive to continuously offer our members an opportunity to get involved and affect change and action. The Chamber currently operates two working councils: the Advocacy Council and the Business Resource Council.

 

Membership in each council is on a voluntary basis however members go through a vetting process specific to each council. Members also server for specific term limits on each council.

 


Advocacy Council

 

The goals and objectives of the Advocacy Council are to monitor and report on public policy that has a commonality with the business community; to develop an Annual Legislative Agenda; and to host the Annual Legislative Agenda.

 

 

Business Resource Council 

 

The Business Resource Council is a group of business professionals who volunteer their time to serve as an "advice giving" council to the Amherst Chamber on issues affecting both the Chamber and the greater business community. This council oversees the Chamber's annual Small Business Awards Luncheon and also aids in the development of new Chamber programs and benefits.
