Dear Clinton Chamber Members and Our Community,
We are continuing to work on your behalf in our community and with our governmental officials during this COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic.
The goal for our community is to continue to SHOP LOCAL in ways that are safe and appropriate. Here are some ways to support Local Business during the coronavirus outbreak:
- Give the Gift of Business — If you usually frequent a business, buy a gift card. Then spread out the use of those gift cards over time while you continue to support them as normal or give them away as gifts to people who might not normally go there or are having hard times.
- Keep Your Subscriptions – If you have a membership or subscription, keep it going. Many small businesses rely on that support to keep their doors open. It is only a few weeks and your continued support can literally save their business.
- Buy Now, Pickup Later – If you plan on buying a product, give the business a call. Pay for it and have them set it aside for you to pick up later.
- Ask How You Can Help – If you know the owners or employees or a business, then text, email or call and ask how you can help. They might have ideas that are specific for their business.
We are going through this together and need to count on each other to be calm, rational and considerate. Check on your neighbors and at-risk community members as well by calling on the phone or sending private messages via social media, instead of going in person.
At this time, the Chamber office is open from 8:30 a.m. until 5:00 p.m., but will be postponing some of our events to adhere to the CDC recommendations. You are welcome to call (601.924.5912) or email (

), and let us know how we can help you.
Sincerely,
TJ McSparrin
Executive Director
