Chronicle publisher, Roger Harnack, officially took the helm of the Omak (WA) Chamber of Commerce on January 1, 2012. He has been the publisher of The Chronicle in Omak, Washington for three years and was elected to the chamber post last November. Harnack’s first duty as president will be to oversee the hiring of a business manager.
At the annual Woodburn Area Chamber of Commerce meeting in January, Woodburn Independent (Oregon) editor, Jason Horton, received the gavel as board president for 2012.
