The Chair's Message

I’m so pleased that we had a great BPOY event and we’re headed in the right direction for 2021-2022. You are such a talented and vibrant group of folks. As we begin our new year, here are some of the objectives planned:


  • Re-tooling our existing workforce & training young adults to be employed in Louisa
  • Prepare for new business and industry to enter the county
  • Marketing tourism for the county
  • Providing existing members and businesses growth opportunities


I hope you enjoy the 4th of July holiday with family and friends. Looking forward to working with you in the future.

Bo Bundrick, Board Chair
