Chamber Legislative Events
|
|
Last month the Chamber traveled to Atlanta with a delegation of over 40 members to attend the Georgia Chamber's annual Eggs & Issues Breakfast. While there, attendees met Georgia General Assembly legislators and learned about the priorities of this coming legislative session.
Next week we head back to Atlanta for our annual State Leadership Luncheon. Our Glynn County General Assembly delegation and community leadership will host this luncheon to recognize and express appreciation for the efforts of our State legislators and State department heads on behalf of the citizens of the Golden Isles. Approximately 70 of the State's leaders are invited to attend, joining approximately 75 Glynn Countians at the luncheon. Also the 2018 Leadership Glynn class will be with us, following their appointments with key State leaders, including Lt. Gov. Casey Cagle, Atty. Gen. Chris Carr, and Sec. of State Brian Kemp. This 6th annual event gives us an opportunity to network with the State's decision makers to discuss issues of importance and priorities in Brunswick and Glynn County.

Does this sound familiar? You have your plan, you know what you want to accomplish, but after awhile, the novelty of your goal starts to wear off, and it becomes more of a struggle to get started every day.
