Union University’s Carl Grant Center was the setting of the Jackson Chamber of Commerce’s “Annual Celebration” ceremony. The center was well decorated, the “DJ5” disc jockey had the lights and music rocking as guests arrived. After the registration everyone was given a drawing ticket and directed to the buffet line. Door prizes included items like an Apple Watch and iPad, and the grand prize was a 50” plasma TV.

Ben Ferguson & Kyle Spurgeon spoke about the achievements Jackson has made with new and growing businesses. The Chamber is a driving force and a superlative example of what is making Jackson great. Downtown is now the shining star when we solicit new corporations to come to Jackson.
