Muskegon In Focus just wrapped up another successful session graduating 32 community leaders on November 2. This 9-week community leadership program boasted 75 speakers over the nine sessions and participants traveled to more than 20 different locations around Muskegon County including ADAC Automotive, Anderson Global, Frauenthal Center, USS Silversides Submarine Museum, Arconic, Harbor Front Interiors, Culinary Institute of Michigan, Tanglewood Park and others!
“This program gets the participants excited about this community and encourages them to give back in any way possible,” said Program Director Pat Shafer. “Most of the participants have already gotten involved in volunteering in the community.”
The Muskegon In Focus Leadership Program is produced by your Chamber each fall in partnership with Muskegon Community College. This program was also sponsored by Arconic.

Chamber Ambassadors Jennifer Scofield, Shoreline Vision & Tamica Fox, ADAC Automotive along with Chamber staff Dawn Johnson and Carla Flanders attended the annual Michigan Association of Chamber Professionals (MACP) convention in Ann Arbor.
There were many great ideas brought back that are in the process of being implemented into our everyday procedures.
