Your December Hayden Chamber News!
|
|
December... The month of the most anticipated holiday of the year!
As this month speeds by filled with holiday shopping and fun gatherings - please remember to consider those in our community who need our help to have a better holiday season.
Here are some of ideas how to help those less fortunate:
- When buying toys for our children or grandchildren - buy a couple extra to put in the "Toys for Tots" boxes that are located all around our area
- When buying food for our holiday gatherings - buy a few extra items to donate to our local food banks
- When we visit the bank to get a bit of spending money, consider getting a few extra $1.00 bills - each time you walk by the Red Kettle you will now have a small donation to contribute
From the staff and board of directors at the Hayden Chamber of Commerce - we wish each of you a very happy holiday season that is filled with joy, wonder and an appreciation for each other!

Our Intern, Nathaniel Bauer, has completed his 6 week internship with the Chamber, and has now returned to completing the final portion of his studies.
We sincerely appreciate his hard work and dedication to the task while bringing a great attitude of fun to the chamber during his short stay.
Nathaniel is a world traveler! As a thank you, we gifted Nathaniel with a Hayden Chamber jacket and asked that he send us a picture of him in his travels.
Pictured here, Nathaniel is in Bishkek,

Hayden Library Has a New Manager
Last month Jessica Bowman was named the new community librarian and manager at Hayden Library. She is no stranger there, having moved from the youth services department to her new position. The previous library manager now works for the Spokane Valley District Library.
A North Idaho native, Bowman started her library career in Sandpoint checking books out, answering reference questions, and cataloging materials. “I’ve always loved libraries,” she said. “Books have been a monumental piece of my life.” With an undergraduate and master’s degree in history, she earned her Masters of Library and Information Science degree from San Jose State University. Bowman left her public library position to become the Sandpoint middle school librarian. Working with students and teachers, she selected books, gave class tours, and shared her enthusiasm for reading. Because she was the only librarian, she did a variety of tasks, including starting an after-school STEM club and writing grants to expand the collection.
She began her first professional position as the adult services librarian for the Latah County Library District, a seven-branch system. “I brought the library to where people gathered instead of expecting them to come to us,” she said. History programs were offered at retirement facilities and 3D printing demonstrations and community art projects happened downtown. Bowman considers these projects a success because of the connections she made with the Moscow community.
When the opportunity came up, Bowman started working for the Community Library Network at Hayden. While she enjoyed working with youth, she also wanted to broaden the scope of what libraries could bring to their community. “With my previous experience and knowing staff and members at Hayden, I feel like I have a head start,” she said. “I look forward to working with Hayden community partners to make the library even more accessible to everyone.”
