Board of Directors

The Brainerd Lakes Chamber is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors who serve three-year terms and represent a wide array of business sectors, sizes and locations. Chamber members are welcome to attend board meetings, which are usually scheduled on the third Thursday of each month from 7:30 to 9:00 a.m. at our administrative office.

Two Advisory Boards also oversee the local activities of the Crosslake and Pequot Lakes Chambers. See current rosters below. Special thanks to all our volunteer leaders!
