Bonham, Texas -- The Bonham Area Chamber of Commerce is excited to announce that we are now accepting applications for both our 2026 Leadership Fannin class and our new Youth Leadership Fannin program for 2026! The leadership program is designed to equip individuals to become stewards by providing them with leadership skill and vital information that motivates them to service and by connecting them with life-long business and personal relationships.

Youth Leadership Fannin is designed to connect students with all aspects of the community by providing them with knowledge, needs and opportunities. It is our goal to provide youth with the motivation to serve in future leadership roles in academic organizations and the community at large as they further their education and begin their careers.

If you have an employee that you believe has the desire to become a vital leader in the community we ask you to please nominate them for application. In addition, if you know of a 2026/2027 junior or senior in high school that shows excellent leadership skills, we invite you to recommend them for our first Youth Leadership Fannin program which kicks off in June 2026.

Information for both programs are attached for your convenience. Please don't hesitate to contact the Chamber office if you have any questions regarding our 2026 leadership programs.

Thank you for your consideration of applicants and sponsorship for our future community leaders!
