Doug Lynch was honored by the Greater Sandpoint Chamber of Commerce as volunteer of the month.
“Doug volunteers whenever and wherever he is needed, because that is the kind of person he is – giving and proud to be a member of the Chamber and support its many activities,” said Sue Traver from the University of Idaho Extension Office.
Doug is a relationship manager from MetLife Home Loans and is an active member of the chamber, serving as president of the Leadership Sandpoint (LS) and chairman of the Ag & Forestry committee. In his role as class president of LS, he and his fellow classmates raised over $2000 by coordinating a yard sale for the DayBreak Center, a nonprofit organization providing family support through dementia therapy; and in his role as chairman of the agriculture and forestry committee, he is responsible for the annual Farm Tour, an event that draws people outside our area to learn about farming and forestry in Bonner County. Additionally, he serves on the chamber’s board of directors.
The Chamber would like to thank Doug for his tireless efforts to make our community strong and healthy through his active participation and leadership.
“He represents why I love calling this community home. He represents the best of Sandpoint, the best of humanity,” Traver said.
