About Our Chamber

Our purpose is to connect our members and their businesses to the community at large. We serve our members as a network hub and as an organizing body when needing to present issues to our local and state governments as well as our communities at large. We work to enhance existing businesses and create and develop opportunities for new businesses to compete in our communities.

Meet our

Executive Director Ann Savage

Ann Savage brings to the Randolph County Chamber of Commerce a wealth of experience in networking, event planning, marketing, and style. With almost 20 years of marketing experience at the Pocahontas-campus of Black River Technical College, she has walked the walk of putting together large-scale graduations and intimate fundraising dinners. She is excited to strengthen the Chamber’s ties to the community at large, especially its relationship to other Chambers across and outside the state. One of her biggest goals while Executive Director is to have more on-site seminars for her Chamber members to grow their businesses. Her door is always open for current and prospective members so come on down to the Old Historic Courthouse in the Square in Downtown Pocahontas and say hi!
