Welcome Welcome

As we welcome the summer season, we're excited to kick off another great lineup of events and opportunities to connect, engage, and celebrate our community. We hope you'll join us for some of our favorite summer traditions, including the Altamaha Fishing Tournament, Bunco at the Big House, and our Hazlehurst Independence Day Celebration. These events are a wonderful reminder of what makes Jeff Davis County such a special place to live, work, and do business.

As we prepare for the 2026-2027 program year, we invite you to complete our Annual Chamber Member Survey. Your feedback plays a vital role in helping us shape future programs, events, and initiatives that best serve our members and community.

Thank you for your continued membership, participation, and support throughout the 2025-2026 year. Because of engaged members like you, our Chamber continues to grow stronger, and we look forward to building on that momentum together in the year ahead.
