The Toccoa-Stephens County Chamber organized a leadership team to attend the January 11-12, 2010 Georgia Chamber Annual Meeting Dinner and Eggs & Issues Breakfast, along with Senator Butterworth and Representative Harden.
At the dinner we heard from keynote speaker, Governor Mike Huchabee who shared his thoughts on national issues including healthcare, education and the federal deficit.
At the breakfast we heard from the Lt. Governor Casey Cagle, the newly elected Speaker of the House David Ralston and Governor SOnny Perdue. They reviewed many of the key challenges the legislators are facing as the 2010 General Assembly gets underway, such as the economy, water, transportation and education.
The leadership group from Toccoa-Stephens County networked with legislators, state agency representatives, and fellow Chamber and Development Authority colleagues to build and sustain relationships and goodwill as well as advance our agenda priorities including Hwy 17 expansion and keeping Traveler's Rest open for visitation.
It was a great opportunity for the leadership team to bond and share our community spirit and pride with key officials.
