Leebo Keels Honored as Powdersville Advisory Board Member of the Year

The Greater Easley Chamber of Commerce proudly facilitates the Powdersville Business Council (PBC), which is led by a group of nine Advisory Board members.  The PBC promotes the well-being of the business, professional and industrial community of the Powdersville area. 

As part of the Greater Easley Chamber of Commerce Annual Meeting and Awards Celebration on March 21, the chamber honored Leebo Keels with the YMCA of Easley, Pickens, & Powdersville as the recipient of the 2022 Powdersville Advisory Member of the Year.  Selected by members of the PBC Advisory Board, this award honors an Advisory Board member who leads by example and has kept others motivated and engaged.

Leebo joined the Powdersville Business Council Advisory Board in April 2021.  And while joining well into the year after the annual calendar had been set, he jumped right in and was eager to help with any need.  And by the end of that year, he willfully accepted the nomination to serve as the 2022 Treasurer for the group and has extended his role as Treasurer for 2023 as well.  And in planning for last year’s inaugural Rhythm on the River event, Leebo quickly became the PBC’s direct liaison to the YMCA in planning an incredible Kids Zone area complete with face painting, arts & crafts, cornhole, and a kick ball tournament...all to keep a 1000+ kids occupied & happy!  He is a true asset to our PBC Advisory Board and the Powdersville community. 

Please join the Greater Easley Chamber of Commerce and Powdersville Business Council Advisory Board in honoring Leebo Keels as the 2022 Powdersville Advisory Board Member of the Year.
