The
Information Services Committee is responsible for publicizing
Chamber activities and programs to members and the community
through various types of media.
One
major function that this committee is responsible for
is determining the information that is displayed on the
Chamber’s Web site, as well as updating the layout
and functionality of the Web site, including ChamberMaster
software benefits. Furthermore, the Information Services
Committee decides upon the material, sponsorships and
layout of the InTouch Newsletter, which is a monthly newsletter
publication circulated to Chamber members and posted on
the Web site. The Committee also is responsible for implementing
the Community Connection, which is a double-truck, bi-monthly
publication printed in partnership with the Morning Sentinel.
The Business Breakfast Series Committee is a sub-committee
of the Information Services Committee. The Breakfast Series
Committee meets at the end of the calendar year to coordinate
the following year's Business Breakfast Schedule.
Information
Services Committee meets on the 1st Thursday of every
other month over food at area Chamber member restaurants.

The
Community Connection is our bi-monthly publication

includes a message from the President, highlights
of upcoming events, business profiles focused on two

we feel should be shared with the community and chamber
non-members. The Community Connection appears

other month starting with January.
Coordinate
timely press releases and published articles with
various media, other Chamber committees, Chamber members,
and relation organizations (KVCOG), emphasizing Chamber
