The Chamber Ambassadors visited two locations this month. They stopped by Rooney Printing to meet the new owners, Dan Webb
and Kirk Boettcher. They took over at the beginning of the year. If you haven’t already done so, stop by and say Hi. Rooney Printing has been a member of the Chamber since 1998. The Ambassadors also visited Anna Giedd, the owner and licensed massage therapist at Nuturing Nature Massage Plus, LLC. Her office is located at 475 Chippewa Mall Drive, Suite 310. The Ambassadors presented her with “The First Dollar of Profit” and have invited her to become a Chamber member.
