As members of both the Hall and Cherokee Chamber of Commerce, we are proud to support and work with our local business leaders to foster a thriving economic network in and around the Gainesville area. Simply put, we know that the work of our local chambers is of paramount importance, and that businesses continue to flock to our area because of its invaluable resources. That is why we were deeply disappointed on Thursday morning when the Georgia Chamber of Commerce President Chris Clark spoke at the Chattahoochee County Club in Gainesville as part of the chamber’s Regional Power Lunch series.
