The Chamber’s Small Business Work Group will host the Wednesday, May 24* Community Luncheon to celebrate the positive economic impact small business has on Shelby County. Nominees for the Chamber’s 2017 Small Business of the Year in five categories will be recognized and the recipients in each category will be announced.
