Committees
Serving one of our active committees is a benefit of membership in the Tangipahoa Chamber. Getting involved on a committee is also a great way to build relationships with fellow business leaders! Please call us at 985-345-4457 to share where you or a team member are interested in participating.
Ambassador Committee
The Ambassador Committee serves as the official greeters for the Tangipahoa Chamber. They are the first ones to welcome members and prospective members at the ribbon-cuttings and groundbreakings, Leads for Lunch, and After Hours. They also help Chamber staff call on members to make sure they are getting the most out of their Chamber membership.
This prestigious group is selected on a yearly basis. For more information about the Ambassador Committee, call the office at 985-345-4457.
