A few days into the pandemic I received an email from a friend asking me if the Veterans Chamber of Commerce was a real thing. I quickly set out to find out. After doing some investigation I decided that this was the next logical step.
Sure; start a brand new business at the beginning of the pandemic with zero money. Yes! why not?
Great idea! I signed the paperwork and called all my Veteran friends and patriot supporters and told them of my endeavor. I was actually surprised when they all said YES! within shy of 4 weeks I had a chamber of commerce for Veterans and patriot supporters.
I gathered a few leaders and we worked on the foundation as we started the chamber meetings to help our community stay in business.
I can't say the journey hasn't been fun, because it has been a blast. I would not have it any other way. This one small detour has brought me more joy and satisfaction than any other thing I've done in my life.
