The purpose of the Junior Ambassador Program is to encourage High School students to become active in the Gatesville community.  Junior Ambassadors will have a chance to learn more from one-on-one contact with the business community, while fulfilling their community service requirements. We take applications staring April 1st 2020, May 1st all applications must be turned in for the 2020-2021 school year.

 Junior Ambassadors are charged with these responsibilities:

•    Serve as official greeting service for the Chamber of Commerce, its committees, and the City of Gatesville;
•    Assist the Chamber in the organization and fulfillment of annual events;
•    Mentor incoming Junior Ambassadors;
•    Investigate ways to further the Chamber’s involvement with local schools to enhance students’ knowledge of the business community and the skills necessary to become successful employees and business leaders;
•    Serve as a link between the business community and the education system.  Assist in implementing programs designed to enhance the relationship between business, industry, educators, and students within the school system;
•    Conduct goodwill trips to Chamber Members as requested.

The Junior Ambassadors also conduct events of their own:

• Valentines Date Night,  Feb 2020 (fundraiser for Hillside Prom)
• 4th Annual Hillside Medical Lodge Prom April 2020
• Parents Day Out in February The Chamber Junior Ambassadors are babysitting children so parents can have an afternoon off to Christmas shop, wrap gifts or just enjoy the day off. Proceeds from the event are used by the Junior Ambassadors to host Hillside’s “Seniors” Prom.
