The Klamath County Chamber of Commerce announced a new a full-time executive director on Tuesday.
Heather Tramp, a familiar face at the chamber, has served in marketing for the past eight years at the chamber and most recently as interim executive director for the past few months.
Tramp expressed excitement after learning of the announcement on Tuesday.
“I am thrilled,” Tramp said.
Tramp succeeds Charles “Chip” Massie who left the chamber to work at Klamath Community College.
Tramp said she wants to build on the vision the chamber has for businesses in the community — leading, connecting, and advocating — and hopes to add more benefits for members.
Tramp also plans to continue to work closely with Discover Klamath and Klamath County Economic Development Association (KCEDA).
She invites chamber members to reach out to her to meet with her about any concerns or just to chat.
“I’m looking forward to maybe reaching out to our membership a little more,” Tramp said.
Let’s talk about what our needs are.”
Tramp said one of the things she would like to do as executive director is to help promote a sense of improved self-worth for the community.
“The chamber can affect some change in that area,” Tramp said.
“Great things are happening in our community and that movement is going to continue to grow,” Tramp said, continuing her response in an email. “We have some work to do but there are organizations and people willing to put the work in to make those changes. I want more people to join that movement and realize what we have to offer.”
Reach the chamber office at 541-884-5193 or visit the office at 205 Riverside Dr.
