“The theme for this year’s Experience Junior Chamber event is ‘Be Better,’” said JCI Kootenay President Brenda Van Der Meer. “That phrase is Junior Chamber International’s tagline. It also guides us as an organization. We’re constantly empowering our members to create positive change and be better in their communities and in their personal and professional lives. This event will help prospective members to understand how.”
