A Letter from the Chair
Kevin Olson • Jackson Hole News&Guide
As you’ll read in the following pages, your Jackson Hole Chamber of Commerce has accomplished much this past year.
Yet we recognize more can be done to ensure the local economy remains vibrant and has the best chance to improve.
Similar to Jackson Hole business owners, Chamber leaders and staff focus on providing you vital services when needed.
To ensure we are doing the best job possible, we always ask if our efforts are effective for and valued by Chamber
Members and the tens of thousands of visitors we have the chance to influence.
Chair
Kevin Olson
The most significant development of the year was the adoption of new bylaws governing the Chamber of Commerce
and its board structure. This has and will help us stay focused on what we do in Jackson Hole.
Chamber work is now divided among six committees that steer offerings to members and the community. Each
committee is led by at least two of our board members. With the additional help of committee volunteers, board
members directly develop and evaluate our programs, always asking if they are effective. Additionally, the new board
structure clarifies the path one must take to sit on the Chamber board. Under the new system, future board members will gain first-hand, ground-level
experience before they take on broad leadership roles. Early results show we chose the right course.
With this as background, I’d like to recognize the efforts of our board and staff and encourage you to let us know if there’s something we can do better or if you
have an idea the Chamber should implement.

community during this past year.

Thank You!
The Jackson Hole Chamber of Commerce would like to thank the
Members, businesses, and individuals who joined together to welcome
ABC’s Modern Family and HGTV’s House Hunters on Vacation to
Jackson Hole this summer.
The Jackson Hole Chamber of Commerce would like to recognize John Frechette of MADE and Kristine
Harris of Jackson Whole Grocer for their efforts in uniting the business community to welcome the cast
and crew with beautiful gift bags that tempted the cast and crew to explore local businesses and to shop for
gifts and souvenirs. Heather Falk, Tourism Manager, noted that these efforts helped to boost business for
the entire community: “With the sheer variety of local products and items included in each welcome bag,
it was a boost to any local business who generously donated product. In numerous instances, the cast and
crew went out shopping to find other items like the ones they received in their welcome bag!”
