Kevin Coleman has his final report from the recent "State of the Community," where he focuses on its host, the Chillicothe Ross Chamber of Commerce.
Mike Throne, president and CEO of the chamber, said they chose to NOT be reflective on the past year. Instead, he said they wanted to be forward-thinking, and so rolled out their 2023-2025 strategic plan. It's available in their website; hard copies are available in their office at 45 East Main Street.
Throne said its four points involve the mission, vision, core values, and objectives of the chamber. He said the chamber was studying their dues structure and benefits, and will probably expand levels and create lower entry points.
The mission of the chamber is simple, and Throne said it is to create the best business climate for businesses to startup, thrive, and continue.
