For around 15 years I have been a member of the Kent County Chamber of Commerce. As part of my work as a photojournalist I attend and photograph many events that the chamber is involved, as well as many other events throughout the year in Kent County.

This photo is from the 2017 Excellence in Business Awards and shows the organization’s Executive Director, Loretta Lodge, and incoming President Stewart Seitz.

At the end of 2019, I became a director of the Chamber. Also Loretta retired and Stewart became the past president.
