Shane Boyett

2025 Chairman

It’s a true honor to serve as the 2025 Chairman of the Board for the Bay County Chamber of Commerce. For over 110 years, the Chamber has been a cornerstone of Bay County’s success, and it remains a driving force in making our community a better place to live and work.

Our mission is central to everything we do: “To create superior value for all chamber members large and small, cultivate economic and personal development, promote and protect a competitive enterprise system of business, be a community leader while embracing Bay County’s opportunities and challenges.”

The Chamber is guided by a dedicated Board of Directors representing the diverse strengths of Bay County. Our experienced staff consistently delivers excellent value to each member, expertly navigating the Chamber’s role in our community. And, of course, the Bay County Chamber wouldn’t thrive without the countless volunteers who generously contribute their time and talents to our mission.

I’m incredibly excited about the future of our Chamber and community as we enter 2025. Our membership continues to grow, surpassing 1,000 members. The Military Affairs Committee has expanded to over 350 members, and our Ambassador program now boasts over 100 members. The organization is well-positioned to deliver outstanding results for our members and community in the years ahead. Our staff, directors, ambassadors and members are truly exceptional and are essential to the Chamber’s success.

In 2025, we will maintain our focus on the strategic plan objectives developed in response to our community’s needs. We will continue to advocate for our community, businesses, and members to enhance our area. And we will continue our strong support of our military partners throughout Bay County, while welcoming new missions to our region.

Bay County is a wonderful place to live and work, and I’m deeply honored to be part of the Bay County Chamber of Commerce during this exciting time. Thank you for your support, and I look forward to a fantastic 2025.
