The Clinton Chamber of Commerce will have a new Executive Director starting January 1, 2023.

Marian Brisard is retiring at the end of the year and the Chamber Board has named Janice Petersen as her replacement. Petersen has been in the office for about a month now and Brisard says she's learning the ins and outs of the operation.

Petersen explains she has an advertising background and through a few job losses in the last few years, Brisard reached out to her about the opening and has enjoyed the job so far.

Petersen recently wrapped up her first time helping to organize the Chamber's biggest fundraiser, the Haunted House. She looks forward to guiding the chamber through other annual events like the annual dinner, the business expo, and May Days among others.
