Kudos for profile
Dear Barry,

Once again, you and your staff produced a great Annual Profile Edition. We continually use these as part of our recruitment efforts as it shows the diverse and talented folks in Marshall County.

The businesses and individuals featured are to be commended for their hard work and contributions.

We especially congratulate the chamber members who are profiled as they recognize the mission of the chamber of commerce by being members who invest in their business and communities.

Serving the Byhalia and Marshall County area, the chamber continues to move forward with the investments of those who give back to society.

We thank and appreciate you and your staff for your daily work to produce the weekly newspapers, The South Reporter and the Pigeon Roost News.

Anyone who works on a deadline, while keeping a quality product or service, understands the challenges and opportunities. We are glad you are here!

Sincerely,
Sarah Sawyer
Executive Director
Byhalia Area Chamber of Commerce
