The Greater La Porte Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors has named Rita Mrozinski as its new President, taking effect January 1, 2017. Mrozinski will replace Michael B. Seitz, IOM, as the leader of the organization after his retirement and 15 years of service to the Chamber.
Mrozinski is currently serving as the Vice President of Membership Services and Finance and has been employed by the Chamber for 5 years. Mrozinski will oversee the operations of the organization and work with the board, staff and community to continue to provide services and programs at exceptional level.
Tom Larson, Chairman of the Board of Directors, stated “I am pleased to announce that Rita Mrozinski has accepted the position of President for the Greater La Porte Chamber of Commerce. A rigorous search to find a new President involved not only advertising the position, reviewing resumes and interviewing candidates, but required the Search Committee to analyze all the skills and attitudes the successful candidate should possess.”
“I am honored to step into the position of President for the La Porte Chamber of Commerce,” stated Mrozinski. “With the help of our board and community, I will work tirelessly to increase community development and the quality of life in the Great La Porte area.”
“With over 5 years with the La Porte Chamber, Rita is currently Vice President and has long been an enthusiastic promoter of the La Porte area and an active participant in community affairs. She has brought strong fiscal control to the Chamber’s finances and was instrumental in helping achieve our 5 Star rating, the highest awarded by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. I feel very fortunate that Rita came forward, actively looking to take on the responsibilities of President and continue to build on the success our Chamber has experienced under the 15 year leadership of retiring Mike Seitz,” said Tom Larson.
