Norb started working for the Whitehouse Police Department in 1972 as AE Time Patrol Man. He was promoted to Sergeant in 1978. In 1994 he was promoted to Police Chief. He served as Chief until 2006.

Each year we are blessed to have such a great community of business owners and residents who sign up and volunteer at the festival each year. It takes over 100 volunteers to staff the 3-day festival and with our rapid growth we are looking for you to please help us. Our volunteers are our "AMBASSADORS' to our community. Once you sign up to become an Ambassador you will attend a 1 hour training class and dinner at the Chamber office to learn the area that you will be working. We offer our Ambassadors VIP treatment during the festival with complimentary meal and drink tickets to our Private "Ambassadors Only" reception area. Please fill out and submit the contact form below and our Ambassadors Director will contact you to discuss your availability for the festival. Welcome to The Chamber Ambassadors Club...open to residents and business owners of the community!
