Greater Cheyenne Chamber of Commerce Business Journal Q3 2014

WHAT IS TRC? Thank you to the volunteers and the businesses who participated. Your investment in the Chamber makes your community better! TRC, or Total Resource Campaign, is our annual membership and investment campaign where we call on Chamber volunteers to assist us in recruiting new Chamber members and selling Chamber sponsorships. We have averaged between $375,000 $450,000 raised during this campaign that has helped us sustain and grow all of the programs and events that we offer to our members. Approximately 40 individuals participate from more than 25 companies throughout the community each year. The Total Resource Campaign is a great way for our volunteers to meet our region’s top CEOs and business owners while working directly with many of the community’s finest volunteers. We have the pleasure of working with individuals whose teamwork and spirit of volunteerism keeps the community of Cheyenne’s future bright. This year, we had many top producers! Our “Rookie of the Year” goes to Lizz Jelsma from Dan D Party Corner! Our “NotSo Rookie of the Year” goes to Judy Nelson from Centennial Lending, who also takes home the trophy for the most in Trade investments. Aaron Courtney from Capital West Bank takes home the trophy for the most in Cash investments. A BIG thank you to all of our Team Leaders as well! Jeremy Hamilton from Warren Federal Credit Union, Tracy Wilson from Pioneer Printing, Michele DeHoff from US Bank, Amber Nuse from McGee, Hearne & Paiz, LLP and Tom Bass from Wyoming Bank & Trust! Since we started the campaign in 2009, our volunteers have helped the Chamber raise over 1.5 Million Dollars!! Every cent of this money has gone toward building new programs and growing existing programs to support our community. Open your doors to these volunteers who give countless hours to enable your Chamber to support business and programs we offer to you! For questions, please contact Tristan Johnson at 638-3388.
