The Greater
Sandpoint Chamber of Commerce honored Allen McClelland as December’s Volunteer
of the Month. Allen’s contributions to the community are very influential for
many organizations. He lends in a hand in a variety of ways and undertakes a
leadership position when he can.
Allen’s
impact in our community is extremely large. Currently, Allen is the Race
Director for the Greater Sandpoint Chamber of Commerce’s Scenic Half Marathon,
which he has held since 2010. Also, he is the Assistant Scoutmaster for Boy
Scouts of America Troop 117 and he has been involved with them since 1991. He’s
a Board Member of the Bonner Community Foodbank and volunteers his time with
Jacey’s Race and the Long Bridge Swim. He has also been a Ponderay since 2005
and was president in 2010 and 2011.
“I love,
Love, Love Sandpoint!” exclaimed Allen. He added, “ [I] count my blessings
every day to live in this wonderful place with wonderful people.”
When he’s
not involved with community service, he can be found supporting his kid’s
activities (cross country, dance, soccer, basketball, volleyball, piano, choir,
etc.) or enjoying the local mountains. In the past, he was a Sandpoint
Leadership Grad in 2006, Chamber Ambassador 2005-2007, former Board Member for
the Ponderay Bay Trail in 2010-2011 and Board Member for the Bonner County
Economic Development Corporation in 2010-2011.
Please join
the Greater Sandpoint Chamber of Commerce in congratulating Matt Mire for being
honored as the Volunteer of the Month and thanking him for all of his
contributions to our community. From the Greater Sandpoint Chamber of Commerce,
as well as the whole community, Thank You!
