Cliff Williams / TPI Judge Bill Lewis swears in the board, executive committee and officers of the Wetumpka Area Chamber of Commerce at last week’s luncheon.
Cliff Williams 334-740-1116
The “red carpet” was rolled out for the Wetumpka Area Chamber of Commerce annual meeting and awards.
The luncheon honored businesses and individuals for their commitment to the chamber and community. The luncheon also served as a reminder that small businesses and people are the root of Wetumpka and Elmore County, especially through commitment and stewardship with the community.
