The Garrett County Chamber of Commerce will present a state-of-the-county forum at its next Business Before Hours event on Tuesday, July 16, at Dutch’s at Silver Tree. The event begins at 8 a.m. with breakfast and networking, followed by the program from 8:30 to 9:30 a.m.
Garrett County commissioners Jim Raley, Bob Gatto, and Gregan Crawford will review the county’s priorities, pending projects, challenges, and plans for this fiscal year.
“We are very pleased to host our county commissioners to provide our members an overview of how Garrett County is faring,” said Nicole Christian, chamber president/CEO. “It’s been a tough few years and it is important that what is happening in the county is communicated with the business community. These commissioners have made it a goal to be accessible and transparent and their participation in the state-of- the-county [event] is helping them to achieve that goal.”
Potomac Edison and Garrett County Memorial Hospital are the forum sponsors.
