Growing up in Calgary, Andra was lucky enough to spend every summer of her life on Flathead Lake in her family’s cabin. Even though the summers were brief, they were majestic, and Lakeside always felt like home. After spending 12 years in Arizona during college and starting her career as a non-profit executive, Andra’s husband Josh and her decided they wanted to move back to Montana and raise their family in Lakeside. They started Tamarack Brewing Company in 2007 and expanded to Missoula in 2011. Andra and Josh are so proud that Tamarack has become a place that locals can gather while sharing pints, a bite to eat, and enjoying each other’s company. Owning a small business in a growing community has provided them with opportunities to give back and pay forward, which has been one of the greatest joys of her life.

As a seasoned real estate broker and investor with deep family roots in the Lakeside/Somers area, I have developed a profound understanding of the local  business landscape.

My role as a board member has  allowed me to build strong relationships with multiple local leaders, facilitating  meaningful collaborations and remarkable events. I'm passionate about the  business development and proactive, inclusive growth in our area.

As a Chamber Board Member for the past three years, Chelsea dedicates her time primarily to events such as the Lakeside 5k/10k, Trunk or Treat, 4th of July fireworks, and the yearly banquet. Her role encompasses fundraising, donation collection, and volunteering on the day of each event. However, her strengths lie in decor and crafting memorable experiences, such as the large grazing table at the Captains Awards and the s’mores bar for the Annual Tree Lighting. Chelsea finds great fulfillment in utilizing her creativity to ensure the success and enjoyment of these occasions for all participants. Volunteering has provided her with opportunities to meet new people and forge connections while actively serving their community.

Sam and his family have owned property in Lakeside since October of 1996 and  have been full-time residents since January 2002. Working in the steel tubing industry requires Sam to travel frequently,  accumulating over 2.4 million flown miles on Delta alone, but the greatest joy for Sam is landing at Glacier International Airport and driving home down 93 South, especially at 1 am, witnessing the twinkling lights of Lakeside amidst the darkness. Reflecting on the changes his witnessed over the years, from a time when the hills were enveloped in darkness to now seeing them illuminated with lights.

Being on the chamber board allows Sam to strive for positive growth and  community involvement, aiming to enhance Lakeside and support the local  businesses catering to the community's needs. Sam hopes that when his final term is over, he will have made a small but  meaningful contribution to building a better community in Lakeside.
