General News: Chamber of Commerce Elects New Leaders
December 04, 2008
Two women are leading the Greater Cornwall Chamber of Commerce following the election of officers last week.
Julie Bush, who with her husband, Ralph, runs the Jack-of-All-Trades home repair business, was elected president. Her first vice president will be Helen Bunt, who owns the Butterhill Day School, Ariel’s Child, and the Dream Dance store.
Tom Quinlan, of Shadow Mountain Farm, is serving another term as second vice president, Arlene DeSocio, of Walden Savings Bank, was re-elected as secretary, and Gary Smith, of Rankin and Smith, will serve again as treasurer.
Angela Calabro, of Giftworks, Mary Davis Clark, of Clark & Associates, Wynn Gold, of Auric Information Packaging, Gail Parrinnello, of the Cornwall Yarn Shop, and Jack Trowel, of the Cromwell Manor Inn, will serve on the chamber’s board.
Outgoing chamber president Bob DeWit was honored for his service at the meeting as well.
Chamber president Julie Bush and her husband Ralph run Jack-of-all-Trades, which has been located in central Cornwall for two years. The husband-wife team won the Business Idol award from the Orange County Chamber of Commerce for their creative solutions to business problems in 2007.
Bush says her first goal is to get to know all the members of the chamber, find out what their needs are and their ideas about how the Chamber can operate. “I think the more people network with each other, you begin working together to support each other,” she said.
