TAKE TIME TO FOLLOW THESE IMPORTANT FACEBOOK PAGES & PLEASE SHARE!

One of the easiest ways to stay connected to what is happening in our communities is also one of the simplest: follow the organizations and official pages that are sharing information about our communities every day.

Our local Chambers of Commerce are important resources for the business community. They connect businesses, promote local commerce, share resources and opportunities, support entrepreneurs, encourage economic growth and help strengthen the relationship between businesses and the communities they serve.

Here are the links:

🔹 Ocean Springs Chamber of Commerce

Our local Main Street organizations work to strengthen and revitalize the heart of our communities. Their work can include supporting downtown businesses, encouraging investment and redevelopment, preserving community character, promoting tourism and beautification, and creating the events and experiences that bring people downtown and keep our community spaces active.

Our official city pages are another important way to stay connected. They help residents stay informed about city services, public meetings, community announcements, projects, events, important notices and other information directly from their local governments.

Here are the links:

🔹 City of Ocean Springs

🔹 City of Gautier

🔹 City of Moss Point

And here’s the important part: these pages aren’t just for business owners or people who work in government.
If you live here, work here, shop here, raise a family here or simply care about what is happening in Jackson County, these are pages worth following.

Following a page may seem like a small thing, but staying informed is one of the easiest ways to become more connected to your community.

Know what’s happening. Support what’s growing. Show up when you can. Shop local when you can. Get involved when you can.

Most importantly, stay connected to the people and organizations working every day to make our communities stronger.

Because strong communities don’t just happen. They are built by people who are informed, involved and invested in the places we all call home.

‼️🚨‼️🚨‼️🚨 UPDATE 🚨‼️🚨‼️🚨‼️
WOODS FIRE UNDER CONTROL
RESIDENTS CLEARED TO RETURN HOME

The woods fire in the Bayou Cumbest–Pecan area has been brought under control.

As of 9:00 PM, residents who evacuated the affected area are cleared to return to their homes.

Residents should be aware that smoke may remain visible and present in the area as they return home.

Please use caution when traveling through the affected area, particularly where smoke may reduce visibility, and remain mindful of emergency personnel and equipment that may still be operating in the area.

We sincerely appreciate residents for following the directives of emergency officials during this incident. We understand that evacuating your home, even temporarily, can be disruptive and concerning.

Please know that every decision made during an emergency is made with one priority in mind……..the safety of our residents! Your cooperation allowed emergency personnel to respond and work safely and effectively.

Special thanks goes to the brave firefighters from the various agencies and personnel who worked beside the Office of Emergency Services and the Jackson County Fire Protection to bring the fire under control and protect residents and property. They include the Mississippi Forestry Commission, Alabama Forestry Commission, and Sandhill Crane National Wildlife Refuge

‼️🚨 EMERGENCY ALERT — WOODS FIRE 🚨‼️

The Jackson County Office of Emergency Services is currently on scene of a woods fire in the Bayou Cumbest–Pecan area of Jackson County.

Residents in the affected area are strongly urged to evacuate as a precaution while emergency crews work to bring the fire under control.

⚠️ Everyone is asked to stay out of the affected area until further notice to allow emergency personnel to safely respond and work to bring the fire under control.

📍 Please refer to the attached map below for the affected area.

Keeping unnecessary traffic out of the area is critical to providing firefighters, emergency vehicles and other responding agencies clear and unrestricted access to safely conduct operations.

Residents should remain alert and follow instructions from emergency personnel. Additional information will be provided as conditions change.

Please avoid the area and allow emergency crews the space they need to work safely.
