The Chamber Diplomats are the goodwill ambassadors for the Chamber of Commerce and the Durango business community as a whole. Made up of 40 members, the organization provides a volunteer base for programs & events, assists with ribbon cuttings to celebrate grand openings, and other special events throughout the year.  The primary purpose of the Diplomats is to help support Durango’s business community, recognize the spirit of accomplishment, and enhance community involvement.
