M E S S A G E F R O M T H E PRESIDENT

As life and business for most has gotten back in full swing in 2023, the Chamber has been no exception We've welcomed 18 new investors into our family in these first six months, with nearly all of them being new businesses in the community. Eatonton is seeing incredible growth and improvements weekly and we are excited to be playing a part in the expansion.

Maggie Milner, President & CEO

We've seen our staff grow, take on new challenges and learn to adjust to the evolving needs of our businesses and community. I think it's safe to say our business community is diversifying more and more and there is a palpable energy coming in again.

However, it's not just with the business culture, it's also in the people choosing to call Eatonton-Putnam County home Having the privilege to meet new neighbors and colleagues regularly and hearing the incredible stories they carry is a true honor. Our office has become a hub for both new and old, friends, visitors, and family We are striving to meet people where they are at and do our best to guide them in their journey here.

As we quickly move into the second half of the year, I am excited for the continuation of our programming, after taking a brief summer break from events We have taken this time to build our programs up greater than ever and I can assure you, you don't want to miss out!
