Meet the people who run the daily operations of the Chamber.
Robert Trame, President The Grand Kerr House
Bob is the President of the Chamber. He is an adventurer at heart, having spent many years driving cross country. He and his wife, Cathy, opened the Historic Grand Kerr House in 2017 as a Bed & Breakfast and relaxation retreat, where it is rare for them to meet a guest from a town they have not visited.
Cathy Hoffman, Secretary Wright-Hanneman Funeral Home
Cathy made the mistake of walking into a Chamber meeting with her co-workers to introduce themselves as the new owners of Wright-Hanneman Funeral Home and left with a list of job duties! As our secretary, Cathy makes sure all of our members are kept up to date on meeting happenings, etc. The Chamber is fortunate to have her diligence.
Joseph Schroeder, Vice President Just for You Shoppe; Miller Insurance
Joe is head of Marketing & Promotion for the Chamber. He is the co-owner of Just for You Shoppe and Miller Insurance, both in Downtown Grand Rapids and previously served as President and Director of the Weston Area Chamber of Commerce.
Carolyn Erdody, Treasurer Member-at-Large
Carolyn is serving her second term as Treasurer of the Chamber. She spent many years as an elected village council person. Carolyn brings a wealth of knowledge to the position and has already set to work on creating updated budgets and funds to keep the Chamber solvent and benefiting our members and the community for many years to come!
