Hello Caswell,

Here's the most recent news from the Chamber of Commerce.
COVID -19 Business Resources

We know that the ongoing pandemic is creating challenges for your business and want to help support your operations. For the past few weeks, we have been working in collaboration with health and business partners to identify ways that we can work together to help our community manage the COVID-19 pandemic. We need your help to better understand what you need to be successful.

Please take a few minutes to complete a short survey. The results will be used to plan for resources to support you throughout the pandemic. Questions can be directed to
Dr. Jen Kimbrough. Thank you!

Please provide what your business needs here.
Meet our Board Members

Eddie Sellars

This month we are pleased to introduce you all to our Board Member of the Month, Eddie Sellars. For over 14 years Eddie has been a part of the leadership team of the Caswell County Chamber of Commerce. His jovial approach and sense of humor is a welcome part of the board meetings each month.

Eddie spent the majority of his career working at Four Seasons Environmental Services. When they closed Eddie had worked there for 19 years. Followng that he worked for seven more years at Greensboro Shrubbery.

Now Eddie is happily retired and spends most of his time volunteering to assist others in his community. He attends the Stoney Creek AME Church and is often seen helping others get where they need to be. Anytime neighbors in his area have a need, Eddie is close by offering to help out whenever he can.
