A Message from the President
|
Last month, nearly 400 members from the Macon and Robins Regional Chambers gathered at the Middle Georgia Regional Airport for our Annual Joint Business After Hours. This has quickly become one of our most popular events, and it offers a great opportunity for businesses from both areas to network and share their resources regionally, while showcasing our local airport. We are fortunate to have so many great regional partners who are striving to help Middle Georgia maintain its standing as a business and industry hub for the state and the Southeast.
Did you know the largest industrial complex in the entire state is right here in our region? Robins Air Force Base employs more than 25,000 people and has a total annual economic impact of $2.75 billion dollars. In addition to these numbers, Robins is also a great community partner continually providing opportunities for community participation and involvement. Next month, Robins will be hosting the Thunder over Georgia Air Show featuring The Thunderbirds, The Army Black Daggers, The Disabled Veterans of America, and numerous other acts. The show will be October 1 & 2 with the gates opening at 9 AM and the Opening Ceremonies starting at 11 AM each day. There will be free parking with shuttle service, and the event is free to attend. This is a family-friendly event, and there will be special activities for children. The last air show in our area was in 2012 and nearly 200,000 people attended! I hope you will plan to attend this year to show your support for our Air Force. Remember that Every Day in Middle Georgia is Air Force Appreciation Day! For more information, check out the Air Show's
website.
