closing the store and settling her mother’s estate. When Tina Bustos announced last month that she was stepped down as executive director at the end of this month after having served in that capacity since May 2008, Cabell said the time was right to re-enter the job market. There were several motivating factors in her wanting to become the Chamber’s next executive director, Cabell said. “Number one, I

absolutely love Powhatan County and I want to see Powhatan thrive and I love this little village area,” she said. “I think we’re very, very fortunate to have it. I think that in order for Powhatan to thrive, part of that is economic prosperity. The Chamber of Commerce I think is a huge player in that and having been a small business owner here in the county I feel like I can relate to some of the issues that the businesses face.” Cabell’s first day on the job was Jan. 6. “Right now is definitely a time of transition from Tina to me,” Cabell said. “Our Board presidents are changing. The annual celebration for the Chamber is Jan. 26 and I think that’s sort of really the end of their year and the beginning of the new year.” Bustos will remain with the Chamber through the end of this month to help with the transition, Cabell said. “I would like to see the Chamber grow on all levels, whether it’s event

attendance or membership or just enthusiasm,” Cabell said. “I would like every single Chamber member to feel that this membership to them is invaluable. I would love for the Chamber to make it possible for a small business to open or stay open.” The Chamber currently has about 250 members, Cabell said. “In Powhatan, the bulk of our membership is made up of small businesses,” she said. “Very few businesses in Powhatan are 50-plus employees.” One of the questions Cabell says she’s been asked is where does she see herself in five years? Her response, she said, was right here in Powhatan. “I have been a lot of places and I don’t think there’s any place quite like it,” she said. “The location is perfect. Another thing about Powhatan County that I think is different is there is such a sense of benevolence. I mean I have never been told ‘no’ or have had people not be willing to help. Powhatan is always willing to help.”

She also looks forward to working with the Chamber’s staff and its Board of Directors, Cabell said. “It’s a fabulous group of people and I knew that going in,” she said. Olander “O.C” Fleming, who will take over soon as the new president of the Board of Directors of the Powhatan Chamber of Commerce, was a member of the nominating committee that recommended Cabell as a finalist for executive director to the Board, who then made the final decision. “I think Angie brings new energy to the Chamber,” Fleming said. “She’s well-rooted in the community and she’s looking forward to working with all of the individuals and businesses in Powhatan as well as surrounding counties. Tina was a fantastic director and we look forward to a very prosperous 2014.” Contact Ben Orcutt at borcutt@powhatantoday. com or at (804) 598-4305, ext. 19 or (804) 363-1577.
