The Clarke County Chamber of Commerce Annual Meeting and Banquet will be held on Monday, January 27, 2025, in the fellowship hall of First Baptist Church in Quitman. The meeting will begin at 6:30 p.m.
The central theme for the event will be “An Evening of Celebration, Reflection Over the Past Year, Inspiration, Looking to the Future.”
Our meal for the evening will be prepared by Skidmore’s Restaurant. Music will be provided by the Quitman High School Jazz Ensemble.
There will be special guest Paisley Ivey, Distinguished Young Woman of Clarke County 2025.
Guests will receive an enlightening presentation from Allen Fore, VP of Public Affairs, and Dylan Arnett, Public Affairs Supervisor, from Kinder-Morgan. Kinder-Morgan is continuing their pipeline through Clarke County, so they will be showing a PowerPoint presentation and speaking on their involvement in the communities where they have built pipelines and how they plan on being involved in Clarke County.
In addition, during the banquet, we will recognize and applaud Clarke County’s Citizen of the Year and Business of the Year. Please come out and show your support; you will not want to miss this very special evening.
