Clayton Chamber of Commerce

Events, Member Announcements & Much More!

 

Dear Chamber Members,

 

We are so excited to have Chamber Members that are so passionate about what is going on in North Carolina politics, as evidenced by the great turnout we had at our Eggs & Issues event on Wednesday morning. This coming week, we will be having our quarterly Business Before Hours at Juice Vibes, formerly known as Juiced Up. See more details below!  

Business Before Hours

We will be having a Business Before Hours event at Juice Vibes on Tuesday, August 12th from 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. Juice Vibes was previously known as Juiced Up. Though they've changed the name, they still have the same fantastic juices and service. Juice Vibes is located at 11692 US Hwy 70 West, Clayton. For more information, click here! 
Help with the Parks and Recreation Master Plan!

 

The Johnston County Sports Council and Johnston County Visitors Bureau are pursuing a Parks and Recreation Master Plan for the county.  The Master Plan is the first step in achieving county-wide parks and recreation programs and facilities. 

 

A Parks and Recreation Master Plan will serve as a resource for all Parks and Recreation Departments, Boards, Governing Boards, Community Partners, and the public to evaluate current services and facilities and fill in the gaps to fulfill the needs of the community. 

If you can, please complete this survey, and share it with your staff, friends, and family.  You can take the survey by clicking here.
