The Crawfordsville/Montgomery County Chamber of Commerce is excited to announce the addition of two executive assistants to the staff, Jessica McClamroch and Michelle Ogden. They are joining executive director Stacy Sommer.
Each assistant will work part-time to create a full-time position. Both women will be able to help Chamber members and the community and each will have their own focus on Chamber functions.
McClamroch has a background in education with experience in event planning, networking and community involvement. In her spare time, she serves as the co-chair for the Strawberry Festival and oversees the Strawberry Festival Queen and Junior Royalty Program as the director. Additionally, she is involved with the NMYSL as a coach and contributes as a parent volunteer for various activities her children participate in. She is passionate about bringing people together and is eager to contribute to the Chamber.
Ogden has worked in various libraries for the last 25 years. She and her husband, Larry, enjoy the beauty of Montgomery County. They like to walk their two rescue German Shepherds on the Sugar Creek Trail. In her spare time Michelle knits, spins yarn and is learning to weave and watercolor. The couple are also building a 27’ houseboat to hopefully sail the Great Loop when they retire. She is very excited to begin working for our chamber and promoting and assisting the businesses of our county.
The Chamber is hosting a Biz & Brew event for the public to meet the staff, board of directors and ambassadors. This open house style event will take place 8:30 a.m. to 10 a.m. Tuesday on the fourth floor of Fusion 54, 101 W. Main St., Crawfordsville.
