Ambassador Committee
Chairs Starla Laper
The Ambassador Committee is a group of men and women who represent the Growth Association as a public relations body. The main focus of this committee is to aid the Growth Association in maintaining our visibility in the community. The Ambassador committee provides this visibility by generously volunteering their time to attend our ribbon cuttings, groundbreakings, open houses, and member events. They volunteer to work at our special events. This committee also assists the Membership Committee in the recruitment and retention of the membership.
This committee meets monthly on the 2nd Tuesday at 9:00 am.
