Message From The 2024 Board Chair - Jeff Schneider
As a lifelong Hastings resident, I have benefitted from the work others have done in the past to make this a great community to grow up in, work in, and to raise a family in. It is my hope that we can continue to improve our community so others can feel the same way about their experience in Hastings in the years to come.
As we begin the year 2024, I am excited to serve as the board chair for the Hastings Area Chamber of Commerce and look forward to working with all of the dedicated board members and staff members to continue the positive momentum in the Hastings community. Our new partnership with HEDC is a great way to make sure that we are working with other entities to do what is best for Hastings and to help grow our local economy.
In my position as the Superintendent for the Hastings Public Schools I am a firm believer that part of my role is to ensure that the school district is a partner in the community and not an obstacle. By being involved with the Chamber I have been able to network with many business leaders in our community and have been so impressed at the talent this community has to offer. It is so important that we continue to be a community that attracts and retains these types of talented individuals. This is just one reason the work of the Chamber is so important.
I want to thank Sheana Smith for her work and dedication that she showed as the chair in 2023 as well as all the board members who volunteered their time to guide the Chamber. I also want to thank our very dedicated staff members for all of their hard work during this last year. I think the future looks very bright for Hastings.
I hope you all have an outstanding 2024!
Jeff Schneider
