🌟 Board Member Highlight: Dora Visbeck 🌟
We’re celebrating one of Hyde Park’s brightest community champions — Dora Visbeck! ✨
For 30 years, Dora has called Hyde Park home, pouring her heart into the community she loves and its rich history. She’s been married to her husband, Anthony, for 29 years and is a proud mom to Kristen and Kayla — and an even prouder grandma to Kelsey, Kara, Kaitlyn & Michele. 💛👨👩👧👧
🙏 Dora is an active member of the Hyde Park United Methodist Church and has been part of the Ulster Savings Bank family since 2007, where she serves as Branch Manager & Assistant Secretary. This year marks 5 amazing years in the Hyde Park branch!
❤️ In 2024, Dora was honored as a Hudson Valley Woman of Impact by the American Heart Association. She continues to serve on the Executive Leadership Team and chairs the Go Red Silent Auction — using her voice and heart to empower local women.
🎗️ One of Dora’s greatest passions is Team Lacie Jae, the organization she co‑founded in memory of her friend Jordeana Snipe. As President, Dora helps support Hyde Park families impacted by cancer — a true testament to her compassion and dedication.
🌟 Dora also gives back by serving as:
• 1st Vice President – Hyde Park Chamber of Commerce
• Vice President – Hyde Park Rotary Club
• Treasurer – New Deal Creative Arts
• Volunteer – DCSPCA Resource Development Committee
And she was recognized as Volunteer Extraordinaire by Northern Dutchess News in 2025! 🌹
From past board service with Dutchess Outreach, Vassar Warner Home, Ulster Savings Charitable Foundation, Red Hook Community Center & the Mid‑Hudson Civic Center… Dora’s impact runs deep.
✨ We are grateful, inspired, and incredibly proud to have Dora as part of our Chamber family.
