Well I hope I have covered everything, it was a pretty busy first meeting and I hope I didn’t leave any important details out. I just want to invite any chamber members that have never been to our Annual meeting to try and make plans to attend it is really a nice event and should be a great meal prepared by our own FCCLA students and Mrs. Carr. I am looking forward to a good year and I know I have a great Board of Directors to help me along the way. I want to take a minute to thank Curtis Reynolds for doing a great job for the past 2 years. Continue to support your chamber and if we can help in any way please let us know.
