In less than a month, the granddaddy of events in Pauls Valley returns to town. And The Pauls Valley Chamber of Commerce is ready to open our doors for the thousands who will visit.

But we need your help. Volunteers are needed in a variety of positions to ensure success of the famed Okie Noodling Tournament in this partnership with the City.

If you can spare a few hours either June 18 or 19 -- and especially June 19! -- please sign up today. The tournament is the largest revenue generator for the Chamber budget and so your volunteer help will be appreciated.

Macey Barber Bids Adieu to PV Chamber

We say goodbye to Executive Board member Macey Barber, who is taking a new position with a company outside our region.

After almost 8 years with AtLink Services, she has accepted the position of Brand Experience Specialist with AHSG (American Health Staffing Group).

Macey started on the Chamber Board in July 2014. Since then, she has served as Secretary for 2 terms, Co-chair for the Chamber Banquet 2 years, the banquet committee for 7 years, the Golf Tournament committee, the Livestock Show committee, and chaired the hog hunt event.

“I have had so much fun, laughs and even a few tears with my fellow board members and former and present staff members,” Macey says. “I have loved every second of my time on the board. It's been the biggest pleasure to learn, grow, and understand the importance of the role the Chamber plays in vibrant, thriving communities. I'm so blessed that the Chamber took a chance on a young girl right out of college who lived 1.5 hours away. It's literally been my pleasure to serve alongside every person.

“Thank you for your well wishes and excitement. Feel free to connect on social media! I'd love to stay in touch with everyone!”

Adopt-A-Highway Areas Offer Company's Great Public Praise

Here's a great way to help keep Pauls Valley looking great... and getting public recognition as well!

The Oklahoma Department of Transportation (ODOT) manages the Adopt-A-Highway program and currently there are new openings in Pauls Valley and Garvin County.

Participants adopt two-mile sections of highway and agree to pick up litter at least four times a year for a two-year period. ODOT provides trash bags, removal of filled bags, orange vests, temporary warning signs and initial safety training. Adopted sections will be identified by a sign at each end listing your group's name.
