NOTES:
from Jane Bowling-Wilson 7/10/2024 - "There are different types of funds we offer each with a slightly different contract, I'll attach a couple here. You would not need to create a different document to do what you asked as you already have a scholarship fund set up, we would just write a Schedule C and attach what you and your board decide. I don't think there have been many changes since the original but will attach a blank scholarship doc here. Happy to provide whatever else you might need."
Response to my ask if there is a founding document - "The contract I sent is the original document signed by both parties, there is not another document. Many of the early contracts look like this one. I have the paper contract that is this one, in the Warrenton office as we are required to keep all paper copies. I don't show any other documents."

Other Executive Update Items
-
-
- Ribbon Cutting Agreement revised and posted to website. https://www.fauquierchamber.org/ribbon-cuttings-and-grand-openings/
- Comments provided during RoundTable
- It has been 120 days since I was first made aware of conversations regarding my performance. Between that time and August 1st, my only understanding of the specific concerns that precipitated consecutive Executive Sessions was the resignation of Connie Corwin who I had hired in February.
I feel there is no value in rehashing the events and emotions since then for numerous reasons including bandwidth and more so ROI.
Instead, I do believe strongly that closure is an important objective for the following reasons. Although there was a conversation on August 1st with select members of the board, I work for the entire board and have felt for the last 120 days a sense of tension and friction within the group as a whole as well individual members and unless addressed, will only further solidify itself and manifest into a relationship that may become untenable for everyone. In my opinion nothing positive can come from that.
For six weeks I wondered and worried each day if it would be my last as your president. The continued secrecy and ambiguous environment was and frankly remains a distraction to both my professional and personal life. This is something that I cannot avoid addressing internally for if I do, I feel confident that not only will my performance continue to be adversely affected but my desire to continue will come into question. Other than the August 1st meeting, I have not had the opportunity to speak with anyone to drill down to what the actual issues are which makes it difficult if not impossible to fix. I have accepted that changes in my tone, rhetoric and actions need to be made to be more in line with the assumed expectations of others but have yet to be provided with any indication of the effect on my relationship with the board.
I am not perfect, none of us are but if the situation isn’t discussed openly, collectively, and constructively with a goal of reaching resolution, I fear that the Chamber will suffer.
The last 120 days have not been all bad as it has forced me to do some self-reflection and reach an understanding within myself that I can do better in those areas that I can self-identify however I would embrace hearing from the entire board, additional thoughts, suggestions and even mandates that are all targeting the same objective.
I can’t say I will agree to all of them but without at least a constructive conversation, we will remain where we are, unable to move forward and give ourselves and most importantly the businesses we serve the opportunity to benefit from what began as an unfortunate situation.

MANAGEMENT REPORT AND UPDATES
- Recap of 2024 VACCE Conference
- RetirePath Program
- A majority of Americans are not saving enough for retirement. In the absence of a nationwide retirement savings program, many states are establishing state-facilitated retirement savings programs such as RetirePath Virginia. Before RetirePath, approximately 45% of the Commonwealth’s workforce an estimated 1.2 million Virginia employees lacked access to a retirement savings plan at work.
- RetirePath Virginia is designed to help close the retirement savings gap and improve the financial security of more Virginians. Workers can save through a participating employer or enroll in RetirePath independently.
In 2021, the Virginia General Assembly passed legislation directing Virginia529 to establish a state-facilitated retirement savings program. - RetirePath Virginia is an automatic-enrollment, state-facilitated retirement savings program. Contributions default to a Roth individual retirement account (IRA). Savers have the option to recharacterize their contributions to a traditional IRA.
- Advocacy v. Lobbying
- a discussion on topics such as effective advocacy, building relationships with policymakers, and how best to use communications to drive awareness. Discussion also included value of scorecards
- RetirePath Program
NEW BUSINESS

OTHER EXECUTIVE UPDATES
- WiseChoice Healthcare Alliance - In June 2022, Gov. Glenn Youngkin signed legislation allowing chambers to form consortiums and sell health care plans that cover small businesses with two to 50 employees. The consortiums are known as Multiple Employer Welfare Associations, or MEWAs, and their aim is to lower the per-person cost of insurance by creating a larger risk pool. Employers can qualify for membership to WiseChoice through membership with the Fauquier Chamber.

Other Executive Update Items
-
-
- Ribbon Cutting Agreement revised and posted to website. https://www.fauquierchamber.org/ribbon-cuttings-and-grand-openings/
- Comments provided during RoundTable
- It has been 120 days since I was first made aware of conversations regarding my performance. Between that time and August 1st, my only understanding of the specific concerns that precipitated consecutive Executive Sessions was the resignation of Connie Corwin who I had hired in February.
I feel there is no value in rehashing the events and emotions since then for numerous reasons including bandwidth and more so ROI.
Instead, I do believe strongly that closure is an important objective for the following reasons. Although there was a conversation on August 1st with select members of the board, I work for the entire board and have felt for the last 120 days a sense of tension and friction within the group as a whole as well individual members and unless addressed, will only further solidify itself and manifest into a relationship that may become untenable for everyone. In my opinion nothing positive can come from that.
For six weeks I wondered and worried each day if it would be my last as your president. The continued secrecy and ambiguous environment was and frankly remains a distraction to both my professional and personal life. This is something that I cannot avoid addressing internally for if I do, I feel confident that not only will my performance continue to be adversely affected but my desire to continue will come into question. Other than the August 1st meeting, I have not had the opportunity to speak with anyone to drill down to what the actual issues are which makes it difficult if not impossible to fix. I have accepted that changes in my tone, rhetoric and actions need to be made to be more in line with the assumed expectations of others but have yet to be provided with any indication of the effect on my relationship with the board.
I am not perfect, none of us are but if the situation isn’t discussed openly, collectively, and constructively with a goal of reaching resolution, I fear that the Chamber will suffer.
The last 120 days have not been all bad as it has forced me to do some self-reflection and reach an understanding within myself that I can do better in those areas that I can self-identify however I would embrace hearing from the entire board, additional thoughts, suggestions and even mandates that are all targeting the same objective.
I can’t say I will agree to all of them but without at least a constructive conversation, we will remain where we are, unable to move forward and give ourselves and most importantly the businesses we serve the opportunity to benefit from what began as an unfortunate situation.

MANAGEMENT REPORT AND UPDATES
- Recap of 2024 VACCE Conference
- RetirePath Program
- A majority of Americans are not saving enough for retirement. In the absence of a nationwide retirement savings program, many states are establishing state-facilitated retirement savings programs such as RetirePath Virginia. Before RetirePath, approximately 45% of the Commonwealth’s workforce an estimated 1.2 million Virginia employees lacked access to a retirement savings plan at work.
- RetirePath Virginia is designed to help close the retirement savings gap and improve the financial security of more Virginians. Workers can save through a participating employer or enroll in RetirePath independently.
In 2021, the Virginia General Assembly passed legislation directing Virginia529 to establish a state-facilitated retirement savings program. - RetirePath Virginia is an automatic-enrollment, state-facilitated retirement savings program. Contributions default to a Roth individual retirement account (IRA). Savers have the option to recharacterize their contributions to a traditional IRA.
- Advocacy v. Lobbying
- a discussion on topics such as effective advocacy, building relationships with policymakers, and how best to use communications to drive awareness. Discussion also included value of scorecards
- RetirePath Program
NEW BUSINESS
- Benchmarking – Discussion on which KPI’s will be most beneficial to track and record

OTHER EXECUTIVE UPDATES
- WiseChoice Healthcare Alliance - In June 2022, Gov. Glenn Youngkin signed legislation allowing chambers to form consortiums and sell health care plans that cover small businesses with two to 50 employees. The consortiums are known as Multiple Employer Welfare Associations, or MEWAs, and their aim is to lower the per-person cost of insurance by creating a larger risk pool. Employers can qualify for membership to WiseChoice through membership with the Fauquier Chamber.

Other Executive Update Items

-
- Ribbon Cutting Agreement revised and posted to website. https://www.fauquierchamber.org/ribbon-cuttings-and-grand-openings/
- Comments provided during RoundTable
- It has been 120 days since I was first made aware of conversations regarding my performance. Between that time and August 1st, my only understanding of the specific concerns that precipitated consecutive Executive Sessions was the resignation of Connie Corwin who I had hired in February.
I feel there is no value in rehashing the events and emotions since then for numerous reasons including bandwidth and more so ROI.
Instead, I do believe strongly that closure is an important objective for the following reasons. Although there was a conversation on August 1st with select members of the board, I work for the entire board and have felt for the last 120 days a sense of tension and friction within the group as a whole as well individual members and unless addressed, will only further solidify itself and manifest into a relationship that may become untenable for everyone. In my opinion nothing positive can come from that.
For six weeks I wondered and worried each day if it would be my last as your president. The continued secrecy and ambiguous environment was and frankly remains a distraction to both my professional and personal life. This is something that I cannot avoid addressing internally for if I do, I feel confident that not only will my performance continue to be adversely affected but my desire to continue will come into question. Other than the August 1st meeting, I have not had the opportunity to speak with anyone to drill down to what the actual issues are which makes it difficult if not impossible to fix. I have accepted that changes in my tone, rhetoric and actions need to be made to be more in line with the assumed expectations of others but have yet to be provided with any indication of the effect on my relationship with the board.
I am not perfect, none of us are but if the situation isn’t discussed openly, collectively, and constructively with a goal of reaching resolution, I fear that the Chamber will suffer.
The last 120 days have not been all bad as it has forced me to do some self-reflection and reach an understanding within myself that I can do better in those areas that I can self-identify however I would embrace hearing from the entire board, additional thoughts, suggestions and even mandates that are all targeting the same objective.
I can’t say I will agree to all of them but without at least a constructive conversation, we will remain where we are, unable to move forward and give ourselves and most importantly the businesses we serve the opportunity to benefit from what began as an unfortunate situation.

MANAGEMENT REPORT AND UPDATES
- Recap of 2024 VACCE Conference
- RetirePath Program
- A majority of Americans are not saving enough for retirement. In the absence of a nationwide retirement savings program, many states are establishing state-facilitated retirement savings programs such as RetirePath Virginia. Before RetirePath, approximately 45% of the Commonwealth’s workforce an estimated 1.2 million Virginia employees lacked access to a retirement savings plan at work.
- RetirePath Virginia is designed to help close the retirement savings gap and improve the financial security of more Virginians. Workers can save through a participating employer or enroll in RetirePath independently.
In 2021, the Virginia General Assembly passed legislation directing Virginia529 to establish a state-facilitated retirement savings program. - RetirePath Virginia is an automatic-enrollment, state-facilitated retirement savings program. Contributions default to a Roth individual retirement account (IRA). Savers have the option to recharacterize their contributions to a traditional IRA.
- Advocacy v. Lobbying
- a discussion on topics such as effective advocacy, building relationships with policymakers, and how best to use communications to drive awareness. Discussion also included value of scorecards
- RetirePath Program

Dear Fauquier Chamber of Commerce Board Members,
The Max Tufts Scholarship Fund has long supported my father’s original commitment to community by providing the Fauquier Chamber of Commerce with the funds necessary to provide financial support to Fauquier County Public High School graduates and I am writing to express my enthusiastic support for expanding the use of these funds to encompass a broader range of educational and professional development opportunities.
While the current scholarship program has undoubtedly made a significant impact on the lives of many young people in our community, I believe that broadening the scope of our support can yield even greater benefits. By allowing the funds to be used for related educational support, as well as professional and leadership opportunities, we can provide more diverse pathways for local youth to succeed, adapt to the changing needs of our community and workforce, and enhance the overall impact of the Chamber's educational initiatives and value to Fauquier.
I believe this expanded approach would enable the Chamber to support additional programs and opportunities such as vocational training programs, leadership workshops, and seminars that equip our youth with essential skills for the modern workplace. By diversifying the scholarship’s reach and support, the Chamber can also demonstrate its commitment to innovative, forward-thinking approaches to community development by helping to cultivate a more well-rounded, skilled, and adaptable workforce in our community while also fostering innovation and potentially the creation of new businesses within our community. I know my father would agree that expanding the value of the scholarship to provide this type of support aligns perfectly with the original mission and intent.
On behalf of my father and the Tufts family at large, I can say that we firmly believe that this broader use of funds will not only benefit individual recipients but will also contribute to the long-term economic vitality of our region.
Thank you to Alec Burnett for approaching us with this opportunity and please know that I am available to discuss this further and assist in developing guidelines for the expanded use of the scholarship fund.
Sincerely,
Max Tufts Jr.
Scholarship Fund Administrator

Other Executive Update Items
-
-
- Ribbon Cutting Agreement revised and posted to website. https://www.fauquierchamber.org/ribbon-cuttings-and-grand-openings/
- Comments provided during RoundTable
- It has been 120 days since I was first made aware of conversations regarding my performance. Between that time and August 1st, my only understanding of the specific concerns that precipitated consecutive Executive Sessions was the resignation of Connie Corwin who I had hired in February.
I feel there is no value in rehashing the events and emotions since then for numerous reasons including bandwidth and more so ROI.
Instead, I do believe strongly that closure is an important objective for the following reasons. Although there was a conversation on August 1st with select members of the board, I work for the entire board and have felt for the last 120 days a sense of tension and friction within the group as a whole as well individual members and unless addressed, will only further solidify itself and manifest into a relationship that may become untenable for everyone. In my opinion nothing positive can come from that.
For six weeks I wondered and worried each day if it would be my last as your president. The continued secrecy and ambiguous environment was and frankly remains a distraction to both my professional and personal life. This is something that I cannot avoid addressing internally for if I do, I feel confident that not only will my performance continue to be adversely affected but my desire to continue will come into question. Other than the August 1st meeting, I have not had the opportunity to speak with anyone to drill down to what the actual issues are which makes it difficult if not impossible to fix. I have accepted that changes in my tone, rhetoric and actions need to be made to be more in line with the assumed expectations of others but have yet to be provided with any indication of the effect on my relationship with the board.
I am not perfect, none of us are but if the situation isn’t discussed openly, collectively, and constructively with a goal of reaching resolution, I fear that the Chamber will suffer.
The last 120 days have not been all bad as it has forced me to do some self-reflection and reach an understanding within myself that I can do better in those areas that I can self-identify however I would embrace hearing from the entire board, additional thoughts, suggestions and even mandates that are all targeting the same objective.
I can’t say I will agree to all of them but without at least a constructive conversation, we will remain where we are, unable to move forward and give ourselves and most importantly the businesses we serve the opportunity to benefit from what began as an unfortunate situation.

MANAGEMENT REPORT AND UPDATES
- Recap of 2024 VACCE Conference
- RetirePath Program
- A majority of Americans are not saving enough for retirement. In the absence of a nationwide retirement savings program, many states are establishing state-facilitated retirement savings programs such as RetirePath Virginia. Before RetirePath, approximately 45% of the Commonwealth’s workforce an estimated 1.2 million Virginia employees lacked access to a retirement savings plan at work.
- RetirePath Virginia is designed to help close the retirement savings gap and improve the financial security of more Virginians. Workers can save through a participating employer or enroll in RetirePath independently.
In 2021, the Virginia General Assembly passed legislation directing Virginia529 to establish a state-facilitated retirement savings program. - RetirePath Virginia is an automatic-enrollment, state-facilitated retirement savings program. Contributions default to a Roth individual retirement account (IRA). Savers have the option to recharacterize their contributions to a traditional IRA.
- Advocacy v. Lobbying
- a discussion on topics such as effective advocacy, building relationships with policymakers, and how best to use communications to drive awareness. Discussion also included value of scorecards
- RetirePath Program

OTHER EXECUTIVE UPDATES
- WiseChoice Healthcare Alliance - In June 2022, Gov. Glenn Youngkin signed legislation allowing chambers to form consortiums and sell health care plans that cover small businesses with two to 50 employees. The consortiums are known as Multiple Employer Welfare Associations, or MEWAs, and their aim is to lower the per-person cost of insurance by creating a larger risk pool. Employers can qualify for membership to WiseChoice through membership with the Fauquier Chamber.

Other Executive Update Items
-
-
- Ribbon Cutting Agreement revised and posted to website. https://www.fauquierchamber.org/ribbon-cuttings-and-grand-openings/
- Comments provided during RoundTable
- It has been 120 days since I was first made aware of conversations regarding my performance. Between that time and August 1st, my only understanding of the specific concerns that precipitated consecutive Executive Sessions was the resignation of Connie Corwin who I had hired in February.
I feel there is no value in rehashing the events and emotions since then for numerous reasons including bandwidth and more so ROI.
Instead, I do believe strongly that closure is an important objective for the following reasons. Although there was a conversation on August 1st with select members of the board, I work for the entire board and have felt for the last 120 days a sense of tension and friction within the group as a whole as well individual members and unless addressed, will only further solidify itself and manifest into a relationship that may become untenable for everyone. In my opinion nothing positive can come from that.
For six weeks I wondered and worried each day if it would be my last as your president. The continued secrecy and ambiguous environment was and frankly remains a distraction to both my professional and personal life. This is something that I cannot avoid addressing internally for if I do, I feel confident that not only will my performance continue to be adversely affected but my desire to continue will come into question. Other than the August 1st meeting, I have not had the opportunity to speak with anyone to drill down to what the actual issues are which makes it difficult if not impossible to fix. I have accepted that changes in my tone, rhetoric and actions need to be made to be more in line with the assumed expectations of others but have yet to be provided with any indication of the effect on my relationship with the board.
I am not perfect, none of us are but if the situation isn’t discussed openly, collectively, and constructively with a goal of reaching resolution, I fear that the Chamber will suffer.
The last 120 days have not been all bad as it has forced me to do some self-reflection and reach an understanding within myself that I can do better in those areas that I can self-identify however I would embrace hearing from the entire board, additional thoughts, suggestions and even mandates that are all targeting the same objective.
I can’t say I will agree to all of them but without at least a constructive conversation, we will remain where we are, unable to move forward and give ourselves and most importantly the businesses we serve the opportunity to benefit from what began as an unfortunate situation.

MANAGEMENT REPORT AND UPDATES
- Recap of 2024 VACCE Conference
- RetirePath Program
- A majority of Americans are not saving enough for retirement. In the absence of a nationwide retirement savings program, many states are establishing state-facilitated retirement savings programs such as RetirePath Virginia. Before RetirePath, approximately 45% of the Commonwealth’s workforce an estimated 1.2 million Virginia employees lacked access to a retirement savings plan at work.
- RetirePath Virginia is designed to help close the retirement savings gap and improve the financial security of more Virginians. Workers can save through a participating employer or enroll in RetirePath independently.
In 2021, the Virginia General Assembly passed legislation directing Virginia529 to establish a state-facilitated retirement savings program. - RetirePath Virginia is an automatic-enrollment, state-facilitated retirement savings program. Contributions default to a Roth individual retirement account (IRA). Savers have the option to recharacterize their contributions to a traditional IRA.
- Advocacy v. Lobbying
- a discussion on topics such as effective advocacy, building relationships with policymakers, and how best to use communications to drive awareness. Discussion also included value of scorecards
- RetirePath Program

Other Executive Update Items

-
- Ribbon Cutting Agreement revised and posted to website. https://www.fauquierchamber.org/ribbon-cuttings-and-grand-openings/
- Comments provided during RoundTable
- It has been 120 days since I was first made aware of conversations regarding my performance. Between that time and August 1st, my only understanding of the specific concerns that precipitated consecutive Executive Sessions was the resignation of Connie Corwin who I had hired in February.
I feel there is no value in rehashing the events and emotions since then for numerous reasons including bandwidth and more so ROI.
Instead, I do believe strongly that closure is an important objective for the following reasons. Although there was a conversation on August 1st with select members of the board, I work for the entire board and have felt for the last 120 days a sense of tension and friction within the group as a whole as well individual members and unless addressed, will only further solidify itself and manifest into a relationship that may become untenable for everyone. In my opinion nothing positive can come from that.
For six weeks I wondered and worried each day if it would be my last as your president. The continued secrecy and ambiguous environment was and frankly remains a distraction to both my professional and personal life. This is something that I cannot avoid addressing internally for if I do, I feel confident that not only will my performance continue to be adversely affected but my desire to continue will come into question. Other than the August 1st meeting, I have not had the opportunity to speak with anyone to drill down to what the actual issues are which makes it difficult if not impossible to fix. I have accepted that changes in my tone, rhetoric and actions need to be made to be more in line with the assumed expectations of others but have yet to be provided with any indication of the effect on my relationship with the board.
I am not perfect, none of us are but if the situation isn’t discussed openly, collectively, and constructively with a goal of reaching resolution, I fear that the Chamber will suffer.
The last 120 days have not been all bad as it has forced me to do some self-reflection and reach an understanding within myself that I can do better in those areas that I can self-identify however I would embrace hearing from the entire board, additional thoughts, suggestions and even mandates that are all targeting the same objective.
I can’t say I will agree to all of them but without at least a constructive conversation, we will remain where we are, unable to move forward and give ourselves and most importantly the businesses we serve the opportunity to benefit from what began as an unfortunate situation.

MANAGEMENT REPORT AND UPDATES
- Recap of 2024 VACCE Conference
- RetirePath Program
- A majority of Americans are not saving enough for retirement. In the absence of a nationwide retirement savings program, many states are establishing state-facilitated retirement savings programs such as RetirePath Virginia. Before RetirePath, approximately 45% of the Commonwealth’s workforce an estimated 1.2 million Virginia employees lacked access to a retirement savings plan at work.
- RetirePath Virginia is designed to help close the retirement savings gap and improve the financial security of more Virginians. Workers can save through a participating employer or enroll in RetirePath independently.
In 2021, the Virginia General Assembly passed legislation directing Virginia529 to establish a state-facilitated retirement savings program. - RetirePath Virginia is an automatic-enrollment, state-facilitated retirement savings program. Contributions default to a Roth individual retirement account (IRA). Savers have the option to recharacterize their contributions to a traditional IRA.
- Advocacy v. Lobbying
- a discussion on topics such as effective advocacy, building relationships with policymakers, and how best to use communications to drive awareness. Discussion also included value of scorecards
- RetirePath Program

OTHER EXECUTIVE UPDATES
- WiseChoice Healthcare Alliance - In June 2022, Gov. Glenn Youngkin signed legislation allowing chambers to form consortiums and sell health care plans that cover small businesses with two to 50 employees. The consortiums are known as Multiple Employer Welfare Associations, or MEWAs, and their aim is to lower the per-person cost of insurance by creating a larger risk pool. Employers can qualify for membership to WiseChoice through membership with the Fauquier Chamber.

Other Executive Update Items
-
-
- Ribbon Cutting Agreement revised and posted to website. https://www.fauquierchamber.org/ribbon-cuttings-and-grand-openings/
- Comments provided during RoundTable
- It has been 120 days since I was first made aware of conversations regarding my performance. Between that time and August 1st, my only understanding of the specific concerns that precipitated consecutive Executive Sessions was the resignation of Connie Corwin who I had hired in February.
I feel there is no value in rehashing the events and emotions since then for numerous reasons including bandwidth and more so ROI.
Instead, I do believe strongly that closure is an important objective for the following reasons. Although there was a conversation on August 1st with select members of the board, I work for the entire board and have felt for the last 120 days a sense of tension and friction within the group as a whole as well individual members and unless addressed, will only further solidify itself and manifest into a relationship that may become untenable for everyone. In my opinion nothing positive can come from that.
For six weeks I wondered and worried each day if it would be my last as your president. The continued secrecy and ambiguous environment was and frankly remains a distraction to both my professional and personal life. This is something that I cannot avoid addressing internally for if I do, I feel confident that not only will my performance continue to be adversely affected but my desire to continue will come into question. Other than the August 1st meeting, I have not had the opportunity to speak with anyone to drill down to what the actual issues are which makes it difficult if not impossible to fix. I have accepted that changes in my tone, rhetoric and actions need to be made to be more in line with the assumed expectations of others but have yet to be provided with any indication of the effect on my relationship with the board.
I am not perfect, none of us are but if the situation isn’t discussed openly, collectively, and constructively with a goal of reaching resolution, I fear that the Chamber will suffer.
The last 120 days have not been all bad as it has forced me to do some self-reflection and reach an understanding within myself that I can do better in those areas that I can self-identify however I would embrace hearing from the entire board, additional thoughts, suggestions and even mandates that are all targeting the same objective.
I can’t say I will agree to all of them but without at least a constructive conversation, we will remain where we are, unable to move forward and give ourselves and most importantly the businesses we serve the opportunity to benefit from what began as an unfortunate situation.

MANAGEMENT REPORT AND UPDATES
- Recap of 2024 VACCE Conference
- RetirePath Program
- A majority of Americans are not saving enough for retirement. In the absence of a nationwide retirement savings program, many states are establishing state-facilitated retirement savings programs such as RetirePath Virginia. Before RetirePath, approximately 45% of the Commonwealth’s workforce an estimated 1.2 million Virginia employees lacked access to a retirement savings plan at work.
- RetirePath Virginia is designed to help close the retirement savings gap and improve the financial security of more Virginians. Workers can save through a participating employer or enroll in RetirePath independently.
In 2021, the Virginia General Assembly passed legislation directing Virginia529 to establish a state-facilitated retirement savings program. - RetirePath Virginia is an automatic-enrollment, state-facilitated retirement savings program. Contributions default to a Roth individual retirement account (IRA). Savers have the option to recharacterize their contributions to a traditional IRA.
- Advocacy v. Lobbying
- a discussion on topics such as effective advocacy, building relationships with policymakers, and how best to use communications to drive awareness. Discussion also included value of scorecards
- RetirePath Program

Other Executive Update Items

-
- Ribbon Cutting Agreement revised and posted to website. https://www.fauquierchamber.org/ribbon-cuttings-and-grand-openings/
- Comments provided during RoundTable
- It has been 120 days since I was first made aware of conversations regarding my performance. Between that time and August 1st, my only understanding of the specific concerns that precipitated consecutive Executive Sessions was the resignation of Connie Corwin who I had hired in February.I feel there is no value in rehashing the events and emotions since then for numerous reasons including bandwidth and more so ROI.
Instead, I do believe strongly that closure is an important objective for the following reasons. Although there was a conversation on August 1st with select members of the board, I work for the entire board and have felt for the last 120 days a sense of tension and friction within the group as a whole as well individual members and unless addressed, will only further solidify itself and manifest into a relationship that may become untenable for everyone. In my opinion nothing positive can come from that.
For six weeks I wondered and worried each day if it would be my last as your president. The continued secrecy and ambiguous environment was and frankly remains a distraction to both my professional and personal life. This is something that I cannot avoid addressing internally for if I do, I feel confident that not only will my performance continue to be adversely affected but my desire to continue will come into question. Other than the August 1st meeting, I have not had the opportunity to speak with anyone to drill down to what the actual issues are which makes it difficult if not impossible to fix. I have accepted that changes in my tone, rhetoric and actions need to be made to be more in line with the assumed expectations of others but have yet to be provided with any indication of the effect on my relationship with the board.
I am not perfect, none of us are but if the situation isn’t discussed openly, collectively, and constructively with a goal of reaching resolution, I fear that the Chamber will suffer.
The last 120 days have not been all bad as it has forced me to do some self-reflection and reach an understanding within myself that I can do better in those areas that I can self-identify however I would embrace hearing from the entire board, additional thoughts, suggestions and even mandates that are all targeting the same objective.
I can’t say I will agree to all of them but without at least a constructive conversation, we will remain where we are, unable to move forward and give ourselves and most importantly the businesses we serve the opportunity to benefit from what began as an unfortunate situation.

MANAGEMENT REPORT AND UPDATES
- Recap of 2024 VACCE Conference
- RetirePath Program
- A majority of Americans are not saving enough for retirement. In the absence of a nationwide retirement savings program, many states are establishing state-facilitated retirement savings programs such as RetirePath Virginia. Before RetirePath, approximately 45% of the Commonwealth’s workforce an estimated 1.2 million Virginia employees lacked access to a retirement savings plan at work.
- RetirePath Virginia is designed to help close the retirement savings gap and improve the financial security of more Virginians. Workers can save through a participating employer or enroll in RetirePath independently.
In 2021, the Virginia General Assembly passed legislation directing Virginia529 to establish a state-facilitated retirement savings program. - RetirePath Virginia is an automatic-enrollment, state-facilitated retirement savings program. Contributions default to a Roth individual retirement account (IRA). Savers have the option to recharacterize their contributions to a traditional IRA.
- Advocacy v. Lobbying
- a discussion on topics such as effective advocacy, building relationships with policymakers, and how best to use communications to drive awareness. Discussion also included value of scorecards

OTHER EXECUTIVE UPDATES
- WiseChoice Healthcare Alliance - In June 2022, Gov. Glenn Youngkin signed legislation allowing chambers to form consortiums and sell health care plans that cover small businesses with two to 50 employees. The consortiums are known as Multiple Employer Welfare Associations, or MEWAs, and their aim is to lower the per-person cost of insurance by creating a larger risk pool. Employers can qualify for membership to WiseChoice through membership with the Fauquier Chamber.

Other Executive Update Items

-
- Ribbon Cutting Agreement revised and posted to website. https://www.fauquierchamber.org/ribbon-cuttings-and-grand-openings/
- Comments provided during RoundTable
- It has been 120 days since I was first made aware of conversations regarding my performance. Between that time and August 1st, my only understanding of the specific concerns that precipitated consecutive Executive Sessions was the resignation of Connie Corwin who I had hired in February.
I feel there is no value in rehashing the events and emotions since then for numerous reasons including bandwidth and more so ROI.
Instead, I do believe strongly that closure is an important objective for the following reasons. Although there was a conversation on August 1st with select members of the board, I work for the entire board and have felt for the last 120 days a sense of tension and friction within the group as a whole as well individual members and unless addressed, will only further solidify itself and manifest into a relationship that may become untenable for everyone. In my opinion nothing positive can come from that.
For six weeks I wondered and worried each day if it would be my last as your president. The continued secrecy and ambiguous environment was and frankly remains a distraction to both my professional and personal life. This is something that I cannot avoid addressing internally for if I do, I feel confident that not only will my performance continue to be adversely affected but my desire to continue will come into question. Other than the August 1st meeting, I have not had the opportunity to speak with anyone to drill down to what the actual issues are which makes it difficult if not impossible to fix. I have accepted that changes in my tone, rhetoric and actions need to be made to be more in line with the assumed expectations of others but have yet to be provided with any indication of the effect on my relationship with the board.
I am not perfect, none of us are but if the situation isn’t discussed openly, collectively, and constructively with a goal of reaching resolution, I fear that the Chamber will suffer.
The last 120 days have not been all bad as it has forced me to do some self-reflection and reach an understanding within myself that I can do better in those areas that I can self-identify however I would embrace hearing from the entire board, additional thoughts, suggestions and even mandates that are all targeting the same objective.
I can’t say I will agree to all of them but without at least a constructive conversation, we will remain where we are, unable to move forward and give ourselves and most importantly the businesses we serve the opportunity to benefit from what began as an unfortunate situation.

MANAGEMENT REPORT AND UPDATES
- Recap of 2024 VACCE Conference
- RetirePath Program
- A majority of Americans are not saving enough for retirement. In the absence of a nationwide retirement savings program, many states are establishing state-facilitated retirement savings programs such as RetirePath Virginia. Before RetirePath, approximately 45% of the Commonwealth’s workforce an estimated 1.2 million Virginia employees lacked access to a retirement savings plan at work.
- RetirePath Virginia is designed to help close the retirement savings gap and improve the financial security of more Virginians. Workers can save through a participating employer or enroll in RetirePath independently.
In 2021, the Virginia General Assembly passed legislation directing Virginia529 to establish a state-facilitated retirement savings program. - RetirePath Virginia is an automatic-enrollment, state-facilitated retirement savings program. Contributions default to a Roth individual retirement account (IRA). Savers have the option to recharacterize their contributions to a traditional IRA.
- Advocacy v. Lobbying
- a discussion on topics such as effective advocacy, building relationships with policymakers, and how best to use communications to drive awareness. Discussion also included value of scorecards
- RetirePath Program

OTHER EXECUTIVE UPDATES
- WiseChoice Healthcare Alliance - In June 2022, Gov. Glenn Youngkin signed legislation allowing chambers to form consortiums and sell health care plans that cover small businesses with two to 50 employees. The consortiums are known as Multiple Employer Welfare Associations, or MEWAs, and their aim is to lower the per-person cost of insurance by creating a larger risk pool. Employers can qualify for membership to WiseChoice through membership with the Fauquier Chamber.

Other Executive Update Items

-
- Ribbon Cutting Agreement revised and posted to website. https://www.fauquierchamber.org/ribbon-cuttings-and-grand-openings/
- Comments provided during RoundTable
- It has been 120 days since I was first made aware of conversations regarding my performance. Between that time and August 1st, my only understanding of the specific concerns that precipitated consecutive Executive Sessions was the resignation of Connie Corwin who I had hired in February.
I feel there is no value in rehashing the events and emotions since then for numerous reasons including bandwidth and more so ROI.
Instead, I do believe strongly that closure is an important objective for the following reasons. Although there was a conversation on August 1st with select members of the board, I work for the entire board and have felt for the last 120 days a sense of tension and friction within the group as a whole as well individual members and unless addressed, will only further solidify itself and manifest into a relationship that may become untenable for everyone. In my opinion nothing positive can come from that.
For six weeks I wondered and worried each day if it would be my last as your president. The continued secrecy and ambiguous environment was and frankly remains a distraction to both my professional and personal life. This is something that I cannot avoid addressing internally for if I do, I feel confident that not only will my performance continue to be adversely affected but my desire to continue will come into question. Other than the August 1st meeting, I have not had the opportunity to speak with anyone to drill down to what the actual issues are which makes it difficult if not impossible to fix. I have accepted that changes in my tone, rhetoric and actions need to be made to be more in line with the assumed expectations of others but have yet to be provided with any indication of the effect on my relationship with the board.
I am not perfect, none of us are but if the situation isn’t discussed openly, collectively, and constructively with a goal of reaching resolution, I fear that the Chamber will suffer.
The last 120 days have not been all bad as it has forced me to do some self-reflection and reach an understanding within myself that I can do better in those areas that I can self-identify however I would embrace hearing from the entire board, additional thoughts, suggestions and even mandates that are all targeting the same objective.
I can’t say I will agree to all of them but without at least a constructive conversation, we will remain where we are, unable to move forward and give ourselves and most importantly the businesses we serve the opportunity to benefit from what began as an unfortunate situation.

MANAGEMENT REPORT AND UPDATES
- Recap of 2024 VACCE Conference
- RetirePath Program
- A majority of Americans are not saving enough for retirement. In the absence of a nationwide retirement savings program, many states are establishing state-facilitated retirement savings programs such as RetirePath Virginia. Before RetirePath, approximately 45% of the Commonwealth’s workforce an estimated 1.2 million Virginia employees lacked access to a retirement savings plan at work.
- RetirePath Virginia is designed to help close the retirement savings gap and improve the financial security of more Virginians. Workers can save through a participating employer or enroll in RetirePath independently.
In 2021, the Virginia General Assembly passed legislation directing Virginia529 to establish a state-facilitated retirement savings program. - RetirePath Virginia is an automatic-enrollment, state-facilitated retirement savings program. Contributions default to a Roth individual retirement account (IRA). Savers have the option to recharacterize their contributions to a traditional IRA.
- Advocacy v. Lobbying
- a discussion on topics such as effective advocacy, building relationships with policymakers, and how best to use communications to drive awareness. Discussion also included value of scorecards
- RetirePath Program

Other Executive Update Items

-
- Ribbon Cutting Agreement revised and posted to website. https://www.fauquierchamber.org/ribbon-cuttings-and-grand-openings/
- Comments provided during RoundTable
- It has been 120 days since I was first made aware of conversations regarding my performance. Between that time and August 1st, my only understanding of the specific concerns that precipitated consecutive Executive Sessions was the resignation of Connie Corwin who I had hired in February.
I feel there is no value in rehashing the events and emotions since then for numerous reasons including bandwidth and more so ROI.
Instead, I do believe strongly that closure is an important objective for the following reasons. Although there was a conversation on August 1st with select members of the board, I work for the entire board and have felt for the last 120 days a sense of tension and friction within the group as a whole as well individual members and unless addressed, will only further solidify itself and manifest into a relationship that may become untenable for everyone. In my opinion nothing positive can come from that.
For six weeks I wondered and worried each day if it would be my last as your president. The continued secrecy and ambiguous environment was and frankly remains a distraction to both my professional and personal life. This is something that I cannot avoid addressing internally for if I do, I feel confident that not only will my performance continue to be adversely affected but my desire to continue will come into question. Other than the August 1st meeting, I have not had the opportunity to speak with anyone to drill down to what the actual issues are which makes it difficult if not impossible to fix. I have accepted that changes in my tone, rhetoric and actions need to be made to be more in line with the assumed expectations of others but have yet to be provided with any indication of the effect on my relationship with the board.
I am not perfect, none of us are but if the situation isn’t discussed openly, collectively, and constructively with a goal of reaching resolution, I fear that the Chamber will suffer.
The last 120 days have not been all bad as it has forced me to do some self-reflection and reach an understanding within myself that I can do better in those areas that I can self-identify however I would embrace hearing from the entire board, additional thoughts, suggestions and even mandates that are all targeting the same objective.
I can’t say I will agree to all of them but without at least a constructive conversation, we will remain where we are, unable to move forward and give ourselves and most importantly the businesses we serve the opportunity to benefit from what began as an unfortunate situation.
- It has been 120 days since I was first made aware of conversations regarding my performance. Between that time and August 1st, my only understanding of the specific concerns that precipitated consecutive Executive Sessions was the resignation of Connie Corwin who I had hired in February.

MANAGEMENT REPORT AND UPDATES
- Recap of 2024 VACCE Conference
- RetirePath Program
- A majority of Americans are not saving enough for retirement. In the absence of a nationwide retirement savings program, many states are establishing state-facilitated retirement savings programs such as RetirePath Virginia. Before RetirePath, approximately 45% of the Commonwealth’s workforce an estimated 1.2 million Virginia employees lacked access to a retirement savings plan at work.
- RetirePath Virginia is designed to help close the retirement savings gap and improve the financial security of more Virginians. Workers can save through a participating employer or enroll in RetirePath independently.
In 2021, the Virginia General Assembly passed legislation directing Virginia529 to establish a state-facilitated retirement savings program. - RetirePath Virginia is an automatic-enrollment, state-facilitated retirement savings program. Contributions default to a Roth individual retirement account (IRA). Savers have the option to recharacterize their contributions to a traditional IRA.
- Advocacy v. Lobbying
- a discussion on topics such as effective advocacy, building relationships with policymakers, and how best to use communications to drive awareness. Discussion also included value of scorecards

Other Executive Update Items
-
-
- Ribbon Cutting Agreement revised and posted to website. https://www.fauquierchamber.org/ribbon-cuttings-and-grand-openings/
- Comments provided during RoundTable
- It has been 120 days since I was first made aware of conversations regarding my performance. Between that time and August 1st, my only understanding of the specific concerns that precipitated consecutive Executive Sessions was the resignation of Connie Corwin who I had hired in February.
I feel there is no value in rehashing the events and emotions since then for numerous reasons including bandwidth and more so ROI.
Instead, I do believe strongly that closure is an important objective for the following reasons. Although there was a conversation on August 1st with select members of the board, I work for the entire board and have felt for the last 120 days a sense of tension and friction within the group as a whole as well individual members and unless addressed, will only further solidify itself and manifest into a relationship that may become untenable for everyone. In my opinion nothing positive can come from that.
For six weeks I wondered and worried each day if it would be my last as your president. The continued secrecy and ambiguous environment was and frankly remains a distraction to both my professional and personal life. This is something that I cannot avoid addressing internally for if I do, I feel confident that not only will my performance continue to be adversely affected but my desire to continue will come into question. Other than the August 1st meeting, I have not had the opportunity to speak with anyone to drill down to what the actual issues are which makes it difficult if not impossible to fix. I have accepted that changes in my tone, rhetoric and actions need to be made to be more in line with the assumed expectations of others but have yet to be provided with any indication of the effect on my relationship with the board.
I am not perfect, none of us are but if the situation isn’t discussed openly, collectively, and constructively with a goal of reaching resolution, I fear that the Chamber will suffer.
The last 120 days have not been all bad as it has forced me to do some self-reflection and reach an understanding within myself that I can do better in those areas that I can self-identify however I would embrace hearing from the entire board, additional thoughts, suggestions and even mandates that are all targeting the same objective.
I can’t say I will agree to all of them but without at least a constructive conversation, we will remain where we are, unable to move forward and give ourselves and most importantly the businesses we serve the opportunity to benefit from what began as an unfortunate situation.

Other Executive Update Items
-
-
- Ribbon Cutting Agreement revised and posted to website. https://www.fauquierchamber.org/ribbon-cuttings-and-grand-openings/
- Comments provided during RoundTable
- It has been 120 days since I was first made aware of conversations regarding my performance. Between that time and August 1st, my only understanding of the specific concerns that precipitated consecutive Executive Sessions was the resignation of Connie Corwin who I had hired in February.
I feel there is no value in rehashing the events and emotions since then for numerous reasons including bandwidth and more so ROI.
Instead, I do believe strongly that closure is an important objective for the following reasons. Although there was a conversation on August 1st with select members of the board, I work for the entire board and have felt for the last 120 days a sense of tension and friction within the group as a whole as well individual members and unless addressed, will only further solidify itself and manifest into a relationship that may become untenable for everyone. In my opinion nothing positive can come from that.
For six weeks I wondered and worried each day if it would be my last as your president. The continued secrecy and ambiguous environment was and frankly remains a distraction to both my professional and personal life. This is something that I cannot avoid addressing internally for if I do, I feel confident that not only will my performance continue to be adversely affected but my desire to continue will come into question. Other than the August 1st meeting, I have not had the opportunity to speak with anyone to drill down to what the actual issues are which makes it difficult if not impossible to fix. I have accepted that changes in my tone, rhetoric and actions need to be made to be more in line with the assumed expectations of others but have yet to be provided with any indication of the effect on my relationship with the board.
I am not perfect, none of us are but if the situation isn’t discussed openly, collectively, and constructively with a goal of reaching resolution, I fear that the Chamber will suffer.
The last 120 days have not been all bad as it has forced me to do some self-reflection and reach an understanding within myself that I can do better in those areas that I can self-identify however I would embrace hearing from the entire board, additional thoughts, suggestions and even mandates that are all targeting the same objective.
I can’t say I will agree to all of them but without at least a constructive conversation, we will remain where we are, unable to move forward and give ourselves and most importantly the businesses we serve the opportunity to benefit from what began as an unfortunate situation.

Other Executive Update Items
-
-
- Ribbon Cutting Agreement revised and posted to website. https://www.fauquierchamber.org/ribbon-cuttings-and-grand-openings/
- Comments provided during RoundTable
- It has been 120 days since I was first made aware of conversations regarding my performance. Between that time and August 1st, my only understanding of the specific concerns that precipitated consecutive Executive Sessions was the resignation of Connie Corwin who I had hired in February.
I feel there is no value in rehashing the events and emotions since then for numerous reasons including bandwidth and more so ROI.
Instead, I do believe strongly that closure is an important objective for the following reasons. Although there was a conversation on August 1st with select members of the board, I work for the entire board and have felt for the last 120 days a sense of tension and friction within the group as a whole as well individual members and unless addressed, will only further solidify itself and manifest into a relationship that may become untenable for everyone. In my opinion nothing positive can come from that.
For six weeks I wondered and worried each day if it would be my last as your president. The continued secrecy and ambiguous environment was and frankly remains a distraction to both my professional and personal life. This is something that I cannot avoid addressing internally for if I do, I feel confident that not only will my performance continue to be adversely affected but my desire to continue will come into question. Other than the August 1st meeting, I have not had the opportunity to speak with anyone to drill down to what the actual issues are which makes it difficult if not impossible to fix. I have accepted that changes in my tone, rhetoric and actions need to be made to be more in line with the assumed expectations of others but have yet to be provided with any indication of the effect on my relationship with the board.
I am not perfect, none of us are but if the situation isn’t discussed openly, collectively, and constructively with a goal of reaching resolution, I fear that the Chamber will suffer.
The last 120 days have not been all bad as it has forced me to do some self-reflection and reach an understanding within myself that I can do better in those areas that I can self-identify however I would embrace hearing from the entire board, additional thoughts, suggestions and even mandates that are all targeting the same objective.
I can’t say I will agree to all of them but without at least a constructive conversation, we will remain where we are, unable to move forward and give ourselves and most importantly the businesses we serve the opportunity to benefit from what began as an unfortunate situation.

Other Executive Update Items

- Ribbon Cutting Agreement revised and posted to website. https://www.fauquierchamber.org/ribbon-cuttings-and-grand-openings/
- Comments provided during RoundTable
- It has been 120 days since I was first made aware of conversations regarding my performance. Between that time and August 1st, my only understanding of the specific concerns that precipitated consecutive Executive Sessions was the resignation of Connie Corwin who I had hired in February.
I feel there is no value in rehashing the events and emotions since then for numerous reasons including bandwidth and more so ROI.
Instead, I do believe strongly that closure is an important objective for the following reasons. Although there was a conversation on August 1st with select members of the board, I work for the entire board and have felt for the last 120 days a sense of tension and friction within the group as a whole as well individual members and unless addressed, will only further solidify itself and manifest into a relationship that may become untenable for everyone. In my opinion nothing positive can come from that.
For six weeks I wondered and worried each day if it would be my last as your president. The continued secrecy and ambiguous environment was and frankly remains a distraction to both my professional and personal life. This is something that I cannot avoid addressing internally for if I do, I feel confident that not only will my performance continue to be adversely affected but my desire to continue will come into question. Other than the August 1st meeting, I have not had the opportunity to speak with anyone to drill down to what the actual issues are which makes it difficult if not impossible to fix. I have accepted that changes in my tone, rhetoric and actions need to be made to be more in line with the assumed expectations of others but have yet to be provided with any indication of the effect on my relationship with the board.
I am not perfect, none of us are but if the situation isn’t discussed openly, collectively, and constructively with a goal of reaching resolution, I fear that the Chamber will suffer.
The last 120 days have not been all bad as it has forced me to do some self-reflection and reach an understanding within myself that I can do better in those areas that I can self-identify however I would embrace hearing from the entire board, additional thoughts, suggestions and even mandates that are all targeting the same objective.
I can’t say I will agree to all of them but without at least a constructive conversation, we will remain where we are, unable to move forward and give ourselves and most importantly the businesses we serve the opportunity to benefit from what began as an unfortunate situation.

- Ribbon Cutting Agreement revised and posted to website. https://www.fauquierchamber.org/ribbon-cuttings-and-grand-openings/
- Comments provided during RoundTable
- It has been 120 days since I was first made aware of conversations regarding my performance. Between that time and August 1st, my only understanding of the specific concerns that precipitated consecutive Executive Sessions was the resignation of Connie Corwin who I had hired in February.
I feel there is no value in rehashing the events and emotions since then for numerous reasons including bandwidth and more so ROI.
Instead, I do believe strongly that closure is an important objective for the following reasons. Although there was a conversation on August 1st with select members of the board, I work for the entire board and have felt for the last 120 days a sense of tension and friction within the group as a whole as well individual members and unless addressed, will only further solidify itself and manifest into a relationship that may become untenable for everyone. In my opinion nothing positive can come from that.
For six weeks I wondered and worried each day if it would be my last as your president. The continued secrecy and ambiguous environment was and frankly remains a distraction to both my professional and personal life. This is something that I cannot avoid addressing internally for if I do, I feel confident that not only will my performance continue to be adversely affected but my desire to continue will come into question. Other than the August 1st meeting, I have not had the opportunity to speak with anyone to drill down to what the actual issues are which makes it difficult if not impossible to fix. I have accepted that changes in my tone, rhetoric and actions need to be made to be more in line with the assumed expectations of others but have yet to be provided with any indication of the effect on my relationship with the board.
I am not perfect, none of us are but if the situation isn’t discussed openly, collectively, and constructively with a goal of reaching resolution, I fear that the Chamber will suffer.
The last 120 days have not been all bad as it has forced me to do some self-reflection and reach an understanding within myself that I can do better in those areas that I can self-identify however I would embrace hearing from the entire board, additional thoughts, suggestions and even mandates that are all targeting the same objective.
I can’t say I will agree to all of them but without at least a constructive conversation, we will remain where we are, unable to move forward and give ourselves and most importantly the businesses we serve the opportunity to benefit from what began as an unfortunate situation.

Proposed Friday Lead Share concept and formation
The Chamber's Leadshare program is one of if not the most popular benefit of membership. We currently manage three Leadshare groups who all operate under the same guidelines, by laws, code of ethics and fees.
Currently 47 businesses are participating across all three groups. This represents 15% of total membership. Although there are 117 categories to which our current membership base lists as the primary category, only 30 are filled between the three groups. This doesn’t necessarily mean that we can immediately up group participation as there are many of the 87 unfilled categories that are likely not applicable for Leadshare i.e. hospital, pre-cast concrete, road construction, etc.
The 30 categories currently occupied comprise of those businesses that are best represented by membership as well as the business community. Real Estate, Financial Services, Banking, Home Repair, Roofing, etc.

Although there are opportunities within Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday for many of the above listed categories, the demand exceeds availability.
Therefore, to accommodate current demand as well as to be proactive for increased membership, we are going to be introducing a Friday Leadshare Group.
The Friday group will operate under the exact same parameters that the other groups do with regards to
- Guidelines
- Officers
- Dues
- Code of Ethics
- Rules
That said, each of the current three groups do operate differently from each other however those differences are based on the composition of each group. Leadership of each group is responsible for ensuring the maximum benefit to its members and have license to accommodate this as they choose excluding any changes or modifications to the content of the list noted above.
LEADSHARE ONLINE MARKETPLACE
The Friday group will conduct themselves no differently that the other three groups however in an effort to embrace change and drive the most value from it, we will be beta testing a new idea with a goal of driving higher value, awareness and overall membership.
The proposal includes dedicating one of the weekly meetings to more of an open and public facing forum. Being that each of the current groups currently have as part of their programming, the opportunity for each of the members to present their products and services to the group, that opportunity is limited to only the reoccurring audience. This process can easily be defined as a B2B program.
B2B programming drives value by engaging businesses who do or may consider doing business with others. Although Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday are not considered formal B2B groups there are many aspects that would be considered part of a total program. Identifying and performing as a full B2B would require radical changes to current programming.
The alternative to B2B is B2C which refers to the process of selling products and services directly between a business and consumers who are the end-users of its products or services and can be one of the most important aspects of running a successful small business.
One Friday each month, the Chamber will offer to the public the chance to sign in to a Zoom meeting to listen and watch a businesses speak to their products and services. Sessions will last 15 minutes.
Friday Leadshare businesses will be charged an annual fee of $50 that will cover their participation for 3 of the 4 available weeks. Those Friday members who wish to present at the 4th Friday will be charged an additional $15 and only allowed to present one week over the course of a year.
There are 37 Fridays between April 1st and the third week of December. With up to 4 presenters each week, there could be a total of 148 business presenting their products and services to the public. Assuming there will time needed to grow the member base, participation from other Leadshare groups should be considered in order to generate and maintain awareness to the public.
There will be no interaction from the online audience other than their ability to post questions or any other information in a monitored chat room.
In order to best manage and ensure consistency, each presenter will be required to follow a script. The script will be topical only allowing for personalize content within the prescribed agenda.
A sample of the agenda is below.
- Business Introduction
- Business Name
- Representatives Name
- Location (if applicable)
- Contact info (phone, website, etc.)
- Reminder to use the chat feature
- Products or Services
- Presenters may use any visual aids such as product samples, photos or any other materials that will assist in promoting the product or services
- Conclusion
- Reminder of how to contact
- Reminder of location (if applicable)
- Thank you and sign off
Public participation will be solicited the same way all chamber events to include posting to the community calendar and inclusion in the weekly e-blasts. In addition:
- This will be a free event and open to the public
- Participants will be required to register in advance allowing staff to review and approve participation
- Approved participants will be provided login credentials in advance of the event along with instructions on how to login as well as a listing of expectations to include notice of waiting room, audience muting, chat room, etc.
At the conclusion of the event, presenters will be provided any text captured from the chat room. The video recording will then be posted to the Leadshare website with viewing access available to all.

Provisional Membership
-
- Request - Authority for the Executive to provide provisional membership between Board Meetings
- Purpose - To provide new members with immediate access to all membership benefits between the time the application is submitted and presented to the board for approval.
- Background - When a membership application is submitted, the following message is returned to the applicant advising them of our procedure.
Thank you for submitting your membership application. The Chamber’s By-Laws require that all applicant’s information be presented to the Board of Directors for review and consideration for approval. The Board meets monthly on the third Wednesday at which time your application will be presented. In anticipation of your acceptance, please send a detailed paragraph describing your business to alec@fauquierchamber.org, along with your logo (if applicable). As a way of expressing our appreciation to your membership as well as means of promoting your business, the Chamber issues a press release of all new members. Thank you again for your application and it is our hope to welcome you as a new member of the Fauquier Chamber of Commerce.
- Issue - Applicants can choose to either be invoiced for their dues and admin fee or may choose to provide a credit card with the application. An invoice is created and the amount is applied to that invoice for those applicants who provide a credit card. Of the last 24 applications received, 15 or 62% are pre paid by credit card. In most cases the time between when the application is submitted and present to the board for approval is within a few weeks however there have been many applications that arrive the week of the board meeting meaning that those must wait up to 3 weeks for approval. And of those that have paid by credit card, we have their money but they are not able to access the services.
- Proposal - Provide the Executive with the authority to conditionally approve those members that submit their applications with credit cards. Conditional membership is defined as having access to any and all benefits provided to all active members with the understanding that their application will still be presented to the board for approval and it will remain the board's right to rescind the conditional membership if warranted per the Chamber By Laws. If a conditional membership is rescinded, the membership would be deactivated and the fees associated to the application would be refunded.
- Procedure - Staff is automatically notified when an application is submitted. Upon review of the application, it states method of payment. For those that pay by credit card, the application will go under the same due diligence performed when preparing for recommendation for board approval. If the Executive review meets the same criteria for recommendation to approve, the applicant is approved with notice of the above conditions. For applicants who request to be invoiced, the current procedure of approval remains as is.
- Benefit - Although an assumption, it is fair to believe that approximately 62% of businesses who apply for membership with a credit card are expecting to activate sooner than later. By adopting the above proposal, we can meet that expectation and get the member activated sooner which aligns with our strategic mission and the assumed expectation of the member. Language would be added to the application process detailing the processes associated to each of the two methods of application submission. This awareness may increase the 62% meaning a high incident of new member activation and potential retention benefit as well.
- Risk - none identified
