Our fearless leader and her husband Danny celebrate 25 years of marriage today! 🎉

He stopped by the office this morning with 25 beautiful, long stemmed roses 🌹

It may be raining outside, but she's all smiles today 🌞🥰

We had a blast Friday night at our Mega Business After Hours event at Synovus Park with the Columbus Clingstones! 🍑

All our regional chambers got to network and parade around the ballfield, and our friend Trey with the Scouts got to throw put the first pitch. ⚾️

We love our regional partners and getting to watch a really good ballgame 😁

🎉 We are ACCREDITED!

The East Alabama Chamber of Commerce has officially earned Alabama Accredited Chamber of Commerce (AACC) designation—becoming one of only 31 chambers statewide to hold this prestigious recognition and one of just a few chambers to receive the designation for the first time this year.

While we're excited about the designation, what means the most is what it represents—a commitment to serving our businesses, supporting our communities, and continuously striving to do our very best for the people who place their trust in us.

Thank you to our Board of Directors, members, partners, and community leaders who make this work possible. Thank you for believing in our mission and helping us build a stronger East Alabama together.

We're grateful, we're proud, and we're just getting started. ❤️

Chambers are families no matter which chamber you're from.

We were so excited to see and support our friends at the Opelika Chamber of Commerce for their 85th Annual Awards Lunch today. Fantastic event at Opelika High School. It is always wonderful to celebrate what businesses and individuals bring to our entire East Alabama region.

This is one of my favorite days in our Leadership East Alabama, we have completed the first part of the day learning why Chick-fil-A is not in the chicken business. They are in the people business. 🐔♥️

On the Russell County ballot on the Tuesday, May 19 Primary Election, voters will see a special election regarding the renewal and continuation of the existing 4.5 mill countywide school tax.

✨This is not a new tax.✨

✅Approval of the measure will continue an important source of funding for local school systems and help support educational opportunities for students across Russell County. A vote against the measure would end this important, existing funding source for local schools.

Thank you to the Phenix City Schools Board of Education for asking us to moderate the four superintendent interviews last week.

We love being part of our community and assisting in this important process. The candidates got all the same questions and the interviews were live streamed.
