Chamber CEO Mike Evans Bids Bolingbrook Farewell

Mike Evans has made his move from Bolingbrook to Naperville. 

The now-former Bolingbrook Area Chamber of Commerce President and CEO served his final day Friday. He will "begin immediately thereafter as the President and CEO of the Naperville Area Chamber of Commerce," according to a Chamber release. 

"While I am full of excitement, energy, and passion for my new position I am also overwhelmed with memories, gratitude, and optimism for the future of the Bolingbrook Chamber," Evans wrote in a Chamber e-mail. "It will have been six years in March that I served at the helm of this terrific association and I am confident that the chamber is poised for success upon my exit."

Current staff and the Chamber board chairman will oversee his duties during the interim of his absence and hiring process of a new CEO, according to the Chamber. A search committee is currently being formed and the process to find Evans' replacement will commence in December.
