The Batavia Chamber of Commerce happily announces Caroline Olinger, owner of Seniors Helping Seniors, as the Ambassador of the Month! Caroline is such an asset to the Batavia Chamber providing a cheerful face and a pleasant presence at many Chamber events. Caroline makes the Chamber feel like a welcoming den! She is always willing to extend a helpful hand to the Chamber. She is a natural at her role as an Ambassador and her business is consistent with her great ability to serve others.
