CHAMBER CALENDER
 

Chamber Members:
We are looking for fun and creative volunteers! 
                          
If you have been looking for a great way to serve your community and get more involved with the Chamber, now is your chance! We are in the process of organizing our event committees for 2015 and we are looking for fun and creative volunteers to bring new ideas and recommendations for making this year's Chamber events the VERY BEST EVER!  
     The Gallatin Chamber has several events that would not be possible without the support and hard work of our volunteers. Each of these events help promote and sustain our local businesses:  
Events:
Chamber Membership Celebration - October 16th
Christmas Parade - December 12th 
In addition to our Chamber events, we are also participating in the Habitat for Humanity Women Build. Our work day is Saturday, May 30th. (No skills required!) 
 
If you would like to volunteer on one or more of the above Committees, please contact us at (615) 452-4000 or email info@gallatintn.org. We look forward to hearing from you and to working with you to make our upcoming events a huge success of all of us!  
Thank you, 
Kim Myers, Director of Marketing & Events
