CHAMBER NEWS & EVENTS

*Please note that Illuminate the Night is not a vendor market and will not have booths selling products.

The Byhalia Area Chamber of Commerce enjoyed celebrating the Chickasaw Travel Center Grand Opening! Thank you, I69 Investments, for choosing the Byhalia area for your developments! Located at 1161 Barringer Road in Byhalia, this travel center is open 24 hours, so you can fill your belly and your fuel tank at your convenience. 

Thank you to everyone who was able to attend our 2023 Awards Luncheon, held at the spectacular Hedge Farm Weddings and Special Events. The preparedness and generosity of the Hedge Farm crew is truly outstanding! Lunch was catered by Calico Kitchen Catering, who provided exceptional service and excellent food! We highly recommend working with them for any size event. Finally, we want to give a HUGE thank you to our luncheon sponsor, Byhalia Bank, a branch of Bank of Holly Springs, who made this wonderful event possible. They are a tremendous partner and supporter of the Chamber, and we couldn’t be more grateful!
