Saying goodbye to our Intern.

 

On June 25, Cody Chamber staff said good-bye to German resident Marc Lamberger. Marc spent just over one month at Cody Chamber as an intern from Northwest College, assisting the chamber by looking deeper into our relationship with social media.  Before leaving, he wrote a Cody Country Chamber of Commerce-Communications Plan and Social Media Strategy. 

 

Since August 2014, he has been a participant of the Congress-Bundestag Youth Exchange for Young Professionals (CBYX), a fellowship that brought him to Wyoming. As a part-time student at Northwest College, Lamberger lived in Powell and worked as a young ambassador for CBYX. His assignment was to foster the cultural exchange between Germany and the United States. His communications plan is available through the chamber office.
