SYRACUSE — The Syracuse-Wawasee Chamber board of directors notified its members this morning, Wednesday, April 6, that Renea Salyer, executive director of the chamber and the SWCC Foundation had resigned Monday, March 28. Her last official day is today, April 6, however, she will be available on an “on counsel” basis to assist the chamber in its transition.
In her resignation letter, Salyer stated the commute from Warsaw to Syracuse and the additional time required of her position have placed a burden on her personal ability to meet the increasing needs of her family. He has accepted a position in Warsaw.
