Junction Buoy has been in Kim Roberts family for over 35 years. The Chamber appreciates her willingness to support us with gift cards, distributing our print directory and promoting the chamber. The Chamber has held events at the Junction Buoy. At the beginning of COVID, they closed because the restaurant was not able to do carryout for their customers. Junction Buoy keeps quality as a top priority as well as keeping their employees safe. Congratulations on hiring a new chef, so now the Junction Buoy can be open every day. Junction Buoy's waterfront location, great food and great service is an asset to our county. Thank you for supporting the chamber and for being a chamber member.

There’s a lot going on in St. Clair County. It was a common theme threaded by a list of accomplishments and an ideal of setting aside differences among those who spoke during Friday’s return of the State of the County. Thelma Castillo, president of the Blue Water Area Chamber of Commerce, which hosted the event, said it was their first time hosting the in-person event since 2019. And one by one, she and other business and government officials took turns highlighting economic development projects and bipartisan use of federal funds at the local level.
