Frontline: New Chamber Director takes the reins

We have a new face in town and we’d like everyone to meet her. Colleen DePasquale moved to Estes Park this past weekend and was greeted with a true Colorado welcome – spring snow. As the snow melts and the sun welcomes in a beautiful week ahead, many of you will see her out and about, getting to know the town and member businesses as she takes the reigns as the new Executive Director of the Estes Chamber.

When you see her, take a moment to say hello and share your favorite shops, restaurants, quiet reading nooks, and hiking spots. Ask her a bit about her time in international hospitality too. She brings more than a decade of chamber leadership with her, in addition to her depth of knowledge of the hospitality industry. She packs a plethora of skills that will help lead our Chamber and business members into a new era. We’re already looking forward to learning and growing through her passion for connecting businesses to community and her wealth of experience running a large chamber and foundation.

The Chamber has a strong focus on advocacy and providing our local businesses with support and resources to foster their entrepreneurial spirit and help them thrive. Colleen embodies our mission and we are excited to expand our resources, events, and activities to be a driving force for the business community that is nearly 400 members strong, and growing.

So, if you see Colleen, have a chat. If you’d like to spend more time getting to know her and her vision for the Estes Chamber, join us for the Chambers Business After Hours, this Wednesday, at Coffee on the Rocks. Pre-registration has closed, but all are welcome to attend and pay at the door. You can find the details on our website esteschamber.org
