Happy Monday, Chamber Friends! | | Momentum is building at the Chamber, and we have a lot of exciting updates to share! From welcoming our new Board of Directors for both the South Baldwin Chamber and the Chamber Foundation to celebrating our latest SBs winners, this week’s update is full of milestones, progress, and community wins. Let’s make it a great week! | | |
🎉
Congratulations to our
SBs Winners!
| | What a wonderful night celebrating alongside local community leaders, Chamber members, and friends as we reflected on all the Chamber accomplished in 2025. We were honored to recognize six incredible award winners who make a difference in our community every single day. A heartfelt thank you to our presenting sponsor, Baldwin Health, and our awards sponsor, Columbia Southern University, for their generous support in making this celebration possible. While we’re incredibly proud of what we achieved in 2025, we’re already looking ahead to an even greater 2026! | | Welcome the 2026 Board of Directors! | | |
We are excited to welcome the new Boards of Directors for both the South Baldwin Chamber of Commerce and the South Baldwin Chamber Foundation!
These dedicated community leaders play a vital role in guiding the mission, vision, and strategic direction of the Chamber and Foundation. Our boards provide leadership, oversight, and advocacy that help strengthen our business community, support economic development, and ensure the Chamber continues to serve our members effectively.
We would also like to extend our sincere gratitude to the board members who have recently rolled off. Your time, commitment, and service have made a lasting impact, and we truly appreciate the energy and expertise you shared in support of the Chamber and Foundation.
With the guidance of our new boards—and the strong foundation built by those who served before—we look forward to another year of growth, collaboration, and continued success for South Baldwin County. Thank you to all who serve and support the Chamber!
