MOOSE JAW — The Moose Jaw & District Chamber of Commerce is inviting nominations for its board of directors, providing a unique opportunity for local business leaders to take an active role in shaping the region’s economic future.
Nominations are now open for seven positions on the board, with elected directors serving a two-year term from September 2025 to September 2027. The deadline to submit nominations is 5 p.m. on Monday, June 9.
The Chamber is encouraging its members to nominate candidates who are committed to supporting local businesses and economic development in Moose Jaw. According to the official call for nominations, individuals who are passionate about community engagement and collaboration are ideal candidates for this leadership role.
Of the current directors, four — Kyle Favel, Devonne Lalonde, Melissa MacLean, and Yeng Ling — have terms expiring this year and are eligible for re-nomination.
If more than seven people are nominated, the Chamber will hold an election. If an election is to be held, voting will take place through a secure online platform with each member in good standing able to cast one vote.
The board of directors is composed of 16 elected and three appointed members. Together, they are responsible for mobilizing community resources to achieve the Chamber’s objectives and foster a thriving local business environment.
Board members are expected to attend at least 75 per cent of the 10 annual Chamber of Commerce meetings and to participate in at least one Chamber or special event committee. With a time commitment of just one to three hours per month, the position offers a chance to contribute to initiatives that affect the broader business community.
Candidates must complete a nomination form, which includes submitting a short biography of 200 words or less, and confirm their willingness to fulfil the responsibilities of the role if elected. The nomination form must be signed by the candidate and submitted to the Chamber office at 88 Saskatchewan Street East or via email to [email protected].
The new board members will be officially installed at the Chamber’s annual general meeting in September.
