A search is underway for the perfect administrative assistant to augment the staff at Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce. While that quest is underway, the team consists of four people with a vast array of talents and years of experience in the chamber realm, said executive director Colleen Clark, who came aboard in 2016.
During Chamber of Commerce Week, running Feb. 19 to 23, Clark took the chance to introduce herself and the rest of the team.
