5:00 PM - 6:00 PM
Dear Chamber Members,
I am extremely honored to have been electedby the Chamber's Board of Directors to serveas your President for the next two years.
I have to fill some very big shoes left byoutgoing President George Krebs who leftthe organization much better off than whenhe began his term as President. Thank youGeorge!
Just a few tips to start with:
• Our website was created with you, themember, in mind. Visit it, use it; it can bea very valuable resource.
• Another exceptional resource is our ownChamber Executive Director, SueDominguez. I urge you to reach out toSue and take advantage of her expertiseand knowledge as you continue to growyour business.
• Lastly, find an hour or so to get active withyour Chamber. The easiest and mostproductive way I think would be to cometo one of the Chamber's weekly BreakfastBonanza meetings. Have a cup of coffeeand chat with other members. I promiseyou that you will be happy you did!
Have a great start to the New Year!
John McGeehan

It’s NOT another motivationalmethod you must learn in order to travel the path tosuccess. It shows you how to create powerful resultsfrom the daily activities of your life.

If you areinterested in sponsoring light refreshments pleasecontact the chamber office.
Thank You!The Howell Chamber would like to thank GeorgeKrebs, Shore Business Solutions, for serving as ourChamber President! George’s term was longer thenmost (normally two years), but when Past PresidentCory Wingergter sold his Howell business andstepped down as president, George assumed theposition earlier than planned. George will continueon the Board as Immediate Past President.
Welcome to our new President, John McGeehan,CentraState Healthcare System. John has been amember of the Board for several years and agreedto serve as President for the next two years. TheChamber is looking forward to working with Johnand greatly appreciates all the work George hasdone for our members and organization.
