named Treasurer, and Judy Applegate was named Secretary. Other members of the board are

Members of the board scheduled the regular monthly board meetings for the board
and reviewed the by-laws of the Chamber.
Board members also discussed initiating a membership drive, creating a web site
and installing a telephone line for the Lewis County Chamber of Commerce. |
Members also discussed whether or not politicians who
are members of the Chamber would have voting rights. It was determined that politicians
would not have the right to vote on Chamber matters. Members also
handled some general housekeeping items.
