It is official, the Chamber of Commerce has accepted the Trenton’s Quilt Festival and the board has unanimously returned the name back to the “Suwannee Valley Quilt Festival”. For more information, please visit the events Facebook page at: https://www.facebook.com/SuwanneValleyQuiltFestival.

We currently have 52 signatures showing support of having the Trenton Train Depot turned over to the City of Trenton. Please help show your support by signing the petition. The petition can be found under the “About Us” Tab on the Chamber home page: www.gilchristchamber.com.   Once completed please be sure to check your email to verify the support.  This is done so that there are no false recordings on the petition. Together we can make the county and communities a better place to live!

The Chamber has also posted an article called “The Ultimate Checklist for Starting a Successful Local Business”.  The article contains information on: How to Apply for the Right Licenses and Permits, OPT for LLC Status, Practice Due Diligence Researching Regulations, etc…  The information is available on the Chambers Facebook Page and Webpage.  We hope you take advantage of this article and find it helpful.

Please help welcome our newest members: Mt. Nebo Missionary Baptist Church, Head 2 Toe Fashion & Beauty World, Trenton Dental, Meridian Behavioral Healthcare, Inc.  I would also like to give a special “Thank you” for those members who have renewed their annual membership. Please continue to support and shop locally! By working together, we build a stronger community.
