Annie Freid
Events and Office Coordinator
Annie joined the Chamber Team December 2024 as the organization’s Event and Office Coordinator. She brings a passion and new outlook for supporting our local businesses and excitement for community events.
After graduating high school, Annie began a successful career in retail management, where she spent 10 years honing her leadership and organizational skills. Most recently she was a Retail Sales Manager at Duluth Trading in Red Wing.
Though not originally from Lake City, she quickly fell in love with the town and its close-knit community. Outside of work, Annie enjoys spending quality time with her husband, child, and their dog, embracing the local culture and creating lasting memories with her family.
Chamber Ambassadors
Chamber Ambassadors act as goodwill ambassadors for the Chamber. They assist the Chamber in recruiting and retaining members and providing event support. They participate in ribbon cuttings, grand openings, milestone awards, and special events promoting goodwill, understanding, and exposure of the Lake City Area Chamber of Commerce. Consider becoming an ambassador with us.
