The Greater
Sandpoint Chamber of Commerce honored Clint Gunter as January’s Volunteer of
the Month. Clint’s hard work and willingness to get involved in the community
is one to be honored.
“When I
spoke to people about this month’s nomination for the Greater Sandpoint Chamber
of Commerce’s Volunteer of the month, one word came up over and over again. That
word was DEDICATED,” explained Ken Wood. “People told me that he was DEDICATED
to his family, DEDICATED to his career, DEDICATED to his friends, DEDICATED to
whatever cause he gets involved with. And this dedication shines through
on his commitment to our community. This DEDICATED individual and this month’s
Volunteer of the Month is Clint Gunter of Sandpoint Furniture.”
Clint is
involved in the Bulldog Financial Fair, a one-day event held for local high
school seniors to understand the in and outs of finances and life after high
school. In addition, Clint volunteers a great deal of time to Bulldog
Bench, an organization geared at helping our local school athletic departments. Due
to his ongoing dedication to our community, Clint has been asked to be on
several local organizations Board of Directors and is recognized as a leader in
our community. Clint has been involved in all of this, while at the same
time serving as the youngest President ever of the Pacific Furniture
Dealers.
“Having
grown up in Sandpoint, many of the opportunities that were available to me when
I was young came from volunteers who love this community as much as I do,”
explained Clint Gunter. “Like most folks in the greater Sandpoint area, my
passion for helping with local programs is not driven by recognition, but to
pass along opportunities that were afforded to me. While our community needs
change from year to year, all of us here at Sandpoint Furniture Carpet One are
committed to an active role in keeping this a wonderful place to work, live,
and play for future generations.”
Please join
the Greater Sandpoint Chamber of Commerce in congratulating Clint Gunter for
being honored as the Volunteer of the Month and thanking him for all of his
contributions and dedication to our community. From the Greater Sandpoint
Chamber of Commerce, as well as the whole community, Thank You!
