“THANKS” to everyone who volunteered their time and energy to help make the events that the Chamber of Commerce sponsors such big and successful projects. The Crawfish Festival was a “HUGE SUCCESS” – seems every year this event gets Bigger and Better – so many wonderful teams competing and the many vendors showing what they have to offer.

The Chamber is now gearing up for the Memorial Day Kids Fishing Tournament on May 27th. The tournament begins at 9:00 a.m., Participants must register and get name tags before beginning to fish – ages 3-12. Bait will be furnished by Beacon 44 Seafood. Trophies will be given to winners of categories, tournament ending at 11 a.m.

Beginning around 1:00 p.m. will be the Annual Kite Contest. All ages are welcome. You may use store bought or homemade kites.Trophies will also be presented at this event. Make sure to bring plenty of sunscreen and enjoy a family fun filled day.

The Chamber received one application for a $500.00 scholarship. McKenzie Stringo has been awarded the scholarship. Congratulation’s!!!

Just a friendly reminder: the 2017 membership applications were put in the mail on March 1st, but several haven’t yet renewed. We want you as a member, so if you have overlooked this, please renew so your business will not be taken off the website.
