Charlene Milligan retired in August 2009 from the Chamber after serving in the capacity of Administrative Officer for ten years. She will be missed! The Chamber hosted a surprise retirement reception to honor Charlene on September 3, where many of Charlene’s family, friends and chamber members gathered to wish her well.  

Taking her place is Lynn Lamb, a Johnson County resident. Lynn began working alongside Charlene Milligan on August 24 to learn the tricks of the trade and she is eager to serve the Chamber members in this capacity. A resident of Johnson County since 1993, Lynn and her husband, Jeffery, live in the Buckeye district, and have two sons, Sean, 11, and Wade, 8.  She and her family are active members of Ivey Baptist Church, where Lynn has served as the AWANA Commander for the past three years, and also serves on the Youth Committee. She also served as the 2008-2009 Johnson County Elementary PTO President. She is the daughter of Ronald and Lynn Todd of Kite. We encourage you to stop by the depot and welcome Lynn to the chamber. She looks forward to working with each of you to reach our goal of building a better community.
