A local attorney is excited about the chance to help local business as a board member on the Menomonie Area Chamber of Commerce.

“I am very much looking forward to the opportunity to be on the Menomonie Area Chamber of Commerce Board. The Chamber is an important part of the community, both by helping current businesses flourish, and by bringing new businesses into the region by promoting the Menomonie area,” said Weld Riley, S.C. attorney Benjamin Ludeman.

Benjamin Ludeman was recently elected to fill a vacant board position. He’s also a graduate of the Menomonie Chamber’s Leadership Program and practices with the firm’s Municipal Law, Business, Frac Sand, Mining and Minerals, Probate and Estate Planning and Labor and Employment Sections.

Ludeman added, “I am most excited for the opportunity to play a more active role in our community, such as by meeting more people and interacting with more businesses within the community. The board appointment will provide more opportunities to become involved in Menomonie where I live and work. My wife and I recently moved to Menomonie, and we feel fortunate to call this community our home.”
