Board Members

Like any other nonprofit corporation, the Chamber is governed by a Board of Directors. The Grants Pass & Josephine County Chamber Board of Director’s philosophy is to Speak as a Group of one. This group of 15 members is elected to confer and decide the path the Chamber as a whole will take, to approve or reject letters from the Chamber to government agencies, to determine the activities and events that the Chamber will put on, and are primary decision-making committee of the Chamber.
