Visitor Information

     An Ambassador is a very important part of the day-to-day operations of the Bend Chamber. As an Ambassador you are a goodwill representative, or the public relations arm of the organization that works for business and community interests in Bend.
     Ambassadors serve as the welcoming committee for new members, are a link to existing members, and a conduit for potential new members.
     The Bend Chamber Ambassadors work to facilitate Chamber membership and participation in Chamber activities.
     Ambassadors actively recruit new partners for the Chamber. Remember, anyone interested in the community is a potential partner. For more information on becoming an Ambassador please contact Tim Casey at the Bend Chamber.

Ambassador of the Year
    A special thanks to Jay Walsh with Elk Lake Resort for donating the 2007 Ambassador of the Year prize which includes:
     Cabin for 4 with a two night stay, dinner for 2 (one night) and free activities (kayaking, canoe, snow shoes, etc.)
