On Tuesday, January 11, 2011, the Executive Board, Board of Directors, and the Ambassadors met to establish committees and set goals for the 2011 calendar year. Three goals were identified:

1. Retain our present members
2. Recruit new members
3. Offer opportunities for participation

Action plans are being put into place with the help of some of our newly defined and designed committees. Whether it means making a phone call or visit to our already established members, contacting non-members and spreading the word about what the chamber is doing for local business or educating themselves in areas that will affect their business…like Healthcare Reform, these teams are reaching out and lending a hand to local businesses in Foxborough, Mansfield and Norton.

If you would like to become more active in the Chamber, you are welcome to join any of these committees, please contact us at 508-339-5655 or This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .
