The Greater Jackson Chamber Partnership asks EVERYONE to TAKE the following Survey! It is extremely important to have your INPUT!

 
The chamber is embarking on a survey of Greater Jackson-area residents in hopes of developing a long-range community plan. The 10-year plan would be a living document updated regularly to adapt

with a growing community. In developing this flexible plan, chamber leaders want input from a broad base of residents who live in all parts of the metro area and stressed the importance of getting as many people as possible to take the survey. Please take a moment to click on the link and complete the survey.  Your participation is crucial to its success. Please forward this to your friends and coworkers. Everybody's voice is important!
