Dear Chamber investors,
We hope you had a great holiday weekend and spent time reflecting on all who gave the ultimate sacrifice while serving in our military. It's because of their service
we are able to enjoy the freedoms we have here in America.
We will extend nominations for our Annual Business Celebration awards by one week. Last date to submit is Friday, June 3, 2022 at 4:00pm CT. LINK
Have job openings? Many call or come by the Chamber office looking for job opportunities. Members have the opportunity to post these on our website at MyMurray.com through their member login. We get 300-400 visits per month to our "Area Jobs" webpage to view these listings. It only takes a few minutes to post. If you need help with your login, contact Hailey at hailey@mymurray.com.
