A Message from the President
|
Each year we produce an Annual Report celebrating our successes from the
previous year and looking forward to the great things happening in the coming year. Our most recent
report is now available -
be sure to pick up a copy
at the next event you
attend!
As you look through the report, it is evident that the Chamber is extremely busy with networking
opportunities, enrichment experiences, working with existing industry in Middle Georgia, and partnering with other organizations to bring new and exciting programs to our community. One of the driving factors that helps us be successful in these endeavors is our Total Resource
Campaign. Thanks to the support of our
members, we are able to continue and enhance the programs you've grown to know, like
Business After Hours and our Annual Meeting. We have also been able to launch new programs, like the Young Entrepreneurs
Academy and The Leader in Me.
This year's campaign recently kicked off, and our TRC volunteers are doing a
fantastic job! They will be hitting the pavement in the coming weeks to offer you the opportunity to be more involved with the Chamber. There are so many ways to be involved - I sincerely hope you will consider participating in this
campaign and helping the Chamber create
bigger and better experiences for business and existing industry in Middle Georgia. If you would like to be contacted about sponsorship opportunities, please email lmcmaster@maconchamber.com.
