From
the President
Jayson Jones
Spring, I hope has finally appeared and we are
well on our way to Springfest. Please mark your
calendars for April 25 and 26 for two fun filled
days. The Chamber membership drive has
been moved and will be held on Monday March
7th at noon. We will be contacting current
members and trying to identify any potential
new members in order to continue fostering
community awareness and building business
relationships. Another way we are proposing
to enhance the Chamber and its impact on the
community is by creating a Leadership Heber
Springs Institute. We a currently setting an
agenda, and working closely with several area
agencies to create a dynamic program. The
Heber Springs Leadership Institute is aimed at
developing a network of talented leaders for
present and future community needs. To meet
this vision, the Leadership Institute seeks to:
* Identify and motivate individuals with
leadership potential.
* Acquaint them with community needs,
challenges, and opportunities.
* Offer a forum of exchange on methods for
dealing with community issues.
*Challenge potential leaders to become involved
with local issues and the process of decision
making.
If you or your business has any potential
candidates, please contact Melisa at the
Chamber as space will be limited.
We look forward to a busy April!
Come celebrate spring in beautiful Heber Springs at the 27t
annual Springfest. Historic Spring Park will be filled with a
crafts, a nature adventure in the Butterfly Pavilion, fun act
for the kids, live music, art demonstrations, festival foods, a
