Dear Yountville Town Council and Leadership,
In advance of the approval of the Town’s annual budget, please see the following letters of support from Yountville Chamber of Commerce leadership, volunteers, and Yountville residents.
On behalf of the Yountville Chamber of Commerce, thank you for your continued support and partnership as we work together to continue to make Yountville the best place to live and work in the Napa Valley! The Chamber team looks forward to continuing to work closely with the Town of Yountville on a myriad of projects which support both businesses and the community alike.
We appreciate your leadership and all that you do for our beautiful town of Yountville.
In Partnership,
Natalie Leighton
President & CEO
Yountville Chamber of Commerce
Mayor Mohler, Vice Mayor Reeves, and Town Council Members, I would like to take this opportunity to express my thoughts on the importance of the Yountville Chamber of Commerce.
As a resident and active community member, in addition to Chamber Board Chair and Vice Chair of the Arts Commission, I have seen firsthand the contributions the Chamber has made over the years, in the good times and the challenging ones.
The Chamber is not only a strong representative of the business community which generates considerable income for the town, but also a voice for the community at large, inclusive of residents and visitors.
With the current challenges in tourism, I have seen new leadership within the Chamber, actively step up and join forces with the Town of Yountville to embrace change while seeking new and effective means to work together toward a greater goal of promoting tourism and increasing revenue within the town.
We truly value the support of the Town Council and look forward to a strong and continued partnership as we continue building upon our strengths and pivoting as needed to bring about positive change for future growth for the town.
Thank you!

Dear Council Members,
I have enjoyed, and continue to enjoy my volunteer time at the Yountville Chamber of Commerce. It has given me the opportunity to become friends with others doing the same, and I find it interesting and rewarding to get to meet people from anywhere in the world, stopping at the center with questions and directions on what to do while we get to know them a bit in doing so.
Of course, as an Italian I especially enjoy visitors from there, chatting with them in Italian (something I no longer do often) and indulging them with information about the beauty and deliciousness of our Napa Valley.
Kind Regards,
Victoria Boscarino
Dear Yountville Town Council,
The team of leadership and volunteers at the Yountville Welcome Center work so well together, all supportive and informative regarding their joys and their knowledge of our town. Tourist come in with questions and curiosity and they are greeted with enthusiasm and specifics regarding the Napa Valley and the locations that we recommend for their enjoyment.
We have organized reference books, catalogues notes, as well as we attend familiarization tours, and have guest speakers monthly.
Summing it up since we volunteers live here and love it, with feet on the ground, our enthusiasm combined with up-to-date chamber information gives us much to offer to our visitors.
With a sense of who’s who and what these local business folks offer, it renders our advice and recommendations such authenticity.
It certainly is a well run chamber led by a dynamic crew! Thank You,
Marissa Carlisle
Town Council,
Volunteering at the welcome center is the most amazing experience.
Our visitors from all over the world are surprised at our little town. So rich in history.
So beautiful, so hospitable, so walkable.
Our restaurants and Street Artwork gallery displays and tasting rooms.
Every corner a photo opportunity.
I am grateful for the opportunities the Chamber of Commerce sharing it with world and I am a part of it.
Sincerely,
Angelika Wieling
Dear Town of Yountville Council Members,
I attended the Mixer at the Cottages of the Napa Valley yesterday (May 12) and would like to thank the Chamber for organizing this event.
Because the Chamber has many members that require assistance when they join the Chamber of Commerce it was great to see and speak with many Members and Associate Members. It was great to see the numbers that attended and to thank the Leadership of the Chamber for organizing this event.
I work as a Volunteer every Friday and it is very gratifying to know that the Town Of Yountville and the Chamber account for many visitors to Town for >Lodging, Food and Wine Tasting. We at the Chamber and Visitor Center are able to assist the visitors with recommendations for their visit, offering special programs for Wine Tastings and making sure their visit is successful.
I believe that with the programs offered by the Chamber for visitors and also for Members has a lot to add to the numbers of visitors to our Town of Yountville.
I believe that the team of Natalie, Andrea and Fred gives the Chamber the leadership that it needs to make it successful.
Regards,
Brian Roberts
To Yountville Town Council,
I have been a volunteer at the Visitors Center for almost 2 years.
It has been a very positive and rewarding experience. Our Yountville visitors are always grateful and excited to visit our city after stopping by to get information from us.
Our managers, Natalie and Andrea are very supportive!
Thank you,
AJ Ames
Dear Town Council Members,
I'm a volunteer with the Yountville Chamber - both in the Welcome Center greeting visitors - and as an Ambassador of the Chamber, reaching out to business members throughout the year. I love working with the Yountville Chamber, I've met great people - other volunteers, business members - and Natalie, Andrea and Frederik make for a positive inclusive environment.
Our town is unique, and our Chamber is special. It connects residents and business owners together through our very popular networking mixers and fun community events.
Being involved has allowed me to see firsthand how even small efforts, such as welcoming new businesses, organizing events - can positively influence the town's sense of community and help local businesses thrive. The Chamber creates touchpoints that bring people together, and volunteering has made me feel a part of the community and our success.
Sincerely,
Diane Gandara
