(KAIR)--After nearly 13-years in the role, the President of the Atchison Area Chamber of Commerce is stepping down; however, Jacque Pregont plans to continue serving the community in other roles she currently holds, including that of Amelia Earhart Festival Coordinator.
Pregont on Wednesday announced her intention to retire to the Chamber’s Board of Directors.
Pregont plans for her retirement to become effective January 31; however, she said that she will continue to provide input until the process of finding her replacement is complete.
MSC Radio News Director Brian Hagen had a chance to talk with her about the decision.
