Kandi Menne: President, Fairmont Area Chamber of Commerce<br />
Its hard to believe that it is<br />
<strong>June</strong> already! The time of the year<br />
when we pause some of our regular<br />
Chamber meetings and events and<br />
transition to a summer schedule<br />
that brings a whole new level of<br />
Chamber membership engagement<br />
opportunities.<br />
A few opportunities include: 2 golf outings.<br />
The Chamber Golf Outing in <strong>June</strong> & Pork Masters<br />
Golf Outing in July, also, look for the Chambers<br />
“boat float “during the IHD parade and our nonprofit<br />
booth during the Martin County Fair. And,<br />
did you know that the Chamber of Commerce Ag<br />
Committee hosts the Blue-Ribbon Pork Cook-Off<br />
held during the Fair? We are working on securing<br />
restaurants to prepare tasty pork dishes to temp your<br />
taste buds! Tickets are on sale now at the Chamber<br />
of Commerce.<br />
A committee for<br />
Fairmont Area Life (FAL)<br />
launched a new FAL website<br />
in January with an open<br />
house. As a follow up<br />
we are hosting a morning session Tuesday <strong>June</strong> 13<br />
at SMEC with an 8:00 am networking and 8:30 am<br />
learning session. We invite everyone to come and<br />
learn how you can collaborate with us by submitting<br />
information on your events to be included on the<br />
FAL Facebook page and website, learn about blogs<br />
and if you haven’t already – experience the FAL<br />
website fairmontarealife.com<br />

volunteer and so much more! Tabs with drop downs<br />
for food & drink, shopping, arts and entertainment,<br />
outdoors, activities, Life, Non-Profits, Fairmont<br />

is nothing to do in Fairmont” visiting this site will<br />
CHANGE your MIND! Re-discover Fairmont and<br />
check out this website or the FAL Facebook page<br />

We are actively taking applications for<br />
Leadership Martin County program which will start<br />
in September. We limit it to only twenty participants<br />
so I encourage you to apply now. Contact the<br />
Chamber! This program is held very other year<br />
and is a nine-month, deep dive into community<br />
leadership. They meet once a month for a full day<br />
of leadership education and further education on<br />
specific areas of our community.<br />
Leadership Martin County is a program<br />
designed to enable candidates to learn about Martin<br />
County resources, values, strengths, weak-nesses,<br />
and challenges. A learning experience geared toward<br />
providing an in-depth look at eight key elements of<br />
our community; education, economic development,<br />
government, healthcare, public safety, quality of life,<br />
agriculture, and culture & diversity. This program<br />
provides opportunities for candidates to exchange<br />
ideas, build networks and begin the process of<br />
identifying and solving important community issues.<br />
Representing the Fairmont Area<br />
Chamber of Commerce, I will be part of a steering<br />
committee that is working on the Workforce issue<br />
in Martin County. In my communications with<br />
area Chamber of Commerce’s we know is that we<br />
are not unique to workforce shortages. With these<br />
connections my goal is to share what others have<br />
already done to bridge the gap while brainstorming<br />
with other local organizations on the workforce<br />
issue.<br />
Another area of work is “Hispanic Voices<br />
in Martin County”. There are plans for an event in<br />
late August, we will keep you informed with all the<br />
details.<br />
At the Fairmont Area Chamber of Commerce<br />
we never stop working! With the school year coming<br />
to an end we just wrapped up Junior Achievement<br />
in our schools and will be re purposing kits in<br />
2
ate e recognized by facilitating as access the leader to leaders, in assisting communication area and businesses education through to prosper. programs and services for its members.<br />
Added Value Continued<br />
preparation for the next school year. Start thinking about being a<br />
volunteer teacher during the next school year.<br />
To continue on the path I set for myself early during my<br />
transition to Fairmont Area Chamber of Commerce President. We are<br />
researching the possibility of restructuring our membership dues. This<br />
will fit within my mission of realizing value of your membership. It will<br />
clearly define all we have to offer your business and employees. Your<br />
member dues is an investment in the future of community and we ask<br />
that you continue to support us on this journey.<br />
We are beginning to line up impactful speakers for all our<br />
networking meetings . If there is a topic you would like to know more<br />
about please let us know. It can be a local, state or National topic. We<br />
will find an expert in that area!<br />
We all like to save money and the membership incentive<br />
program is beginning to "catch on"! If you would like to find out more<br />
about this program - let's get together and I will walk you thru how you<br />
can earn money to spend on your membership or email blasts.<br />
Don't forget we have "Chamber Bucks" all year! They truly are<br />
