Attendees of the Walker County Chamber of Commerce’s March Membership Luncheon on Tuesday, will be introduced to Thrive 2055 – Reaching Beyond Today by presenter Bridgett Massengill.
The focus of Thrive 2055 is the tri-state region of Tennessee, Georgia and Alabama connected by landscape, watersheds, and local issues. There are 16 counties and 79 municipalities within the region.
Officials said, "Thrive 2055 is a volunteer-driven, public-private initiative focused on proactively engaging people from across the region, connected by landscape and common experiences, in setting a course for a shared future. This initiative is an opportunity for local businesses, non-profit organizations, government representatives, and citizens for the 16-County Tri-State region to come together to examine the successes and challenges and plan a course of action for how all can work together for a brighter tomorrow."
Attendees will hear highlights of the program and learn why it is taking place, who is involved, why it is important and how they can get involved.
During the event the Chamber’s Ambassador Committee and the Georgia Department of Labor – LaFayette will have spotlight tables in which they will share information on their organizations and upcoming events. The event will be catered by No Small Affair and door prizes will be awarded.
