Dawn Lowe Promoted to Executive Director at Greensburg/Decatur County Chamber
The Greensburg/Decatur County (GDC) Chamber of Commerce is now going through exciting changes with a promising future ahead. The Board of Directors has appointed Dawn Lowe as the Chamber’s new Executive Director effective immediately. Dawn, a native to Indiana, has worked for the GDC Chamber for two and a half years, serving as the Marketing and Public Relations Director and Administrative Assistant. Lowe has helped grow the followership of the Chamber’s social media platforms, working relentlessly throughout the pandemic to get information out to not only Chamber members, but all of Decatur County and the surrounding communities as quickly as possible. While the focus is now being put back on the members, the Chamber works to help and support the business community in Decatur County using different publicity measures, publications, and more.
“I am extremely excited to be a part of this organization right now! I feel the Chamber can make a great impact for the different business communities in Decatur County, representing both large and small entities, assisting with growth, development, education, and labor,” Lowe commented.
Lowe previously worked for the Decatur County Family YMCA as their Marketing Director where she was heavily involved in the growth and sustainability of the Annual Campaign and Endowment as well as helping with the groundwork for the current Capital Campaign and expansion. Lowe’s experience with marketing, along with the relationships she’s built over the past seven to ten years while in Decatur County, coupled with her educational background gives her a unique outlook on the future of the Chamber with fresh ideas and energy that she is looking to pour into the community.
Lowe also mentioned the special relationship the Chamber has with what has been known for several years as the Stellar Group. “The Stellar Group, consisting of the City of Greensburg, Decatur County Community Foundation, Economic Development Corporation of Greensburg/ Decatur County, Visit Greensburg, Main Street Greensburg and Greensburg/Decatur County Chamber of Commerce meets
regularly to talk about different ideas, projects, and topics all in an effort to showcase where we live and continue building on the great attributes which are already here. It is an honor to have a seat at the table, be able to bounce ideas back and forth, and work to make those visions a reality for our communities.”
Board President, Mandy Lohrum adds, “The board is excited to have Dawn as the head of the Chamber team. She has been performing as the Interim Director these past few months, and we are confident in her abilities to lead the Chamber and its membership.”
When Lowe is not working, she enjoys spending time with her family (husband, Mark; daughters KaeLynn, Kenedee, and Kirkley; and son, Klein). Her children are extremely involved with their schools, competing in volleyball, softball, basketball, football, and dance, as well as being part of many clubs and activities. Lowe is also the Varsity Assistant Volleyball coach at Greensburg Community High School.
“I have a great desire to help people. Whether that is on the court or in the business sector; I like to know I am making a difference. It is such an honor to know I get to serve so many businesses and individuals, working every day to make Decatur County the best it can absolutely be.”
