The President’s Corner Hello fellow chamber members. Well folks, if you did not attend our last meeting, you really missed out on a great program on continuing education by Mrs. Nancy Coleman of Columbus Tech. This lady was a dynamic speaker in every sense of the word. She was very informative on every topic she covered. We at the chamber, hope to see the need in the future for an extended campus here in our community! Our welcome bag program is moving ahead nicely and we think it will be a great success for the area businesses. We have several new members on board; AFLAC, BellSouth, All Tune & Transmission Service, Jus-bar-b-q, Lois Price Real Estate and Broadmoore Realty, B & B Home Repair to mention a few. We at the Chamber ask that our members and the community be patient with us as we are all volunteer staffed and we are learning a lot as we grow. Everything we do, and take in, is used to promote this community, so with all that said, please take note of our business highlight and please support them. Thank you so much for your support to the chamber.

May Business Highlight HARRY’S GRILLING SAUCE I bet you haven’t tried Harry’s Grilling Sauce have you! Well, you’re in for a treat when you do. Harry’s Grilling Sauce didn’t get started until last year, when some of his friends and family said he had something really good here and should try selling it! Well, that’s just what he did, and you can purchase this mustard base sauce for just $2.00 for a 16 ounce jar, or $20.00 a case from Coleman’s Grocery Store right here in Cusseta. Of course, if you are in Columbus, pick up some at Burt’s Butcher Shop on Warm Springs Road, Phenix Food Service with two locations, one on Colonel Powell Parkway in Phenix City or on St. Mary’s Road in Columbus. Harry moved to Cusseta about four years ago to the peace and tranquility of the country, which he found right here in Chattahoochee County. This peacefulness has him thinking again of developing a mild tasting sauce along with “dry rub”, which is used for marinating meat. But, you can’t go wrong with his “sweet heat”, mustard base grilling sauce. Pick some up today, or give him a call at 989-1972 when you run out! For more information on this fabulous grilling sauce, check out his web site at www:harrysgrillingsauce.com Speaker at Chamber Meeting At each meeting, we look for someone to speak on a subject that will help our business’ to grow. Plan to attend and learn how our next speaker can help you and your business. If you have any suggestions for a speaker please let our Program Chairmen, Larry Dillard and Bill Patterson or any of the Board of Directors know so they can consider your suggestion when scheduling subjects and speakers for future meetings.
