"In today's world of economic development you have to to be ready at a moments notice. We partnered with the Tennessee Department of Community and Economic Development to put this world class website together. The Tennessee ECD helped make this possible for us, saving the tax payers in McNairy County thousands of dollars. We appreciate their help and the support on this project. We are looking forward to a new year and I am excited to have all of the support and partners that we have had. The future looks bright and we are ready." - Eddie Crittendon, Chamber CEO

Chamber Coffee

The McNairy County Developmental Services may very well be one of the county's best kept secrets. Chamber Coffee was an opportunity to highlight their services and bring a few new faces through the door.

The group enjoyed coffee, hot chocolate, apple cider, and donuts. Stephanie Ray, the Developmental Center's Director, spoke about the challenges the center faces and how community volunteers can get involved, followed by a tour of the facility. Chamber Coffee is a chance to see what our members have to offer. Join us next month at Edward Jones, Sam Vise, January 12, 8:30am.
