2026 Board of Directors
The Chamber is made up of members of the business community. The Chamber acts as a forum through which businesses can speak, providing opportunities to network and allowing members to share ideas and solutions to business challenges. The elected Board of Directors sets policies and directs the management of the South Cariboo Chamber of Commerce.
The Board Executive consists of the Chair, Vice Chair, Treasurer, and Secretary. In addition to the Executive, there are up to eight additional directors elected for two-year terms, with half their number up for re-election each year. The directors participate in various Board Committees, as required. Elections take place at the Annual General Meeting held every spring.










Jamie Gauvin — President Chair
Since my family relocated to the Cariboo in 2016, I shifted gears from a 20-year corporate career to proudly own Northern Lights Tanning in 2018—a beloved establishment that has supported our community for over 15 years. Together, let’s shine a light on our community by joining the Chamber.
I’m genuinely enthusiastic about being part of the talented team at the Chamber, where we have some exciting initiatives on the horizon. With a strong team and a fresh perspective, we are poised to spark engaging discussions and strengthen the ties within our business community. Why should you consider joining us? Networking is vital—it’s not solely about who you know, but also about the connections your contacts have. It’s a powerful tool that can help you stand out.
As Jim Rohn wisely stated, “Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going.”
I am looking forward to a thrilling year ahead as your Chamber President!
