Thank You Traci

We would like to thank Traci Paponetti for her hard work and dedication as the WWLCC Board Chair the past 2 years. We are grateful for Traci’s commitment to the WWLCC and for moving our organization forward. As the committee chair for Workforce Development, Traci was instrumental in leading our efforts to support our employers to provide the opportunity for people to live, work, and play in Lake County. Traci was also the WWLCC Turkey Bowl committee chair and executed an amazing networking fundraising event with proceeds going to our student scholarship and business grants fund.


We are happy to announce that Traci will remain on the Board of Directors as Past Chair.
