It looks like our community is in store for an unseasonably warm weekend upcoming and there is no better way to celebrate that warm up than going shopping in Morristown. Shopping local generates significant funding and support for our local school system and is a way to contribute through doing things you already enjoy doing, shopping! Hamblen County is the 3rd smallest county in size in the State of Tennessee but we are blessed with more than our share of retailers. From large to small, there are beginning to be less and less items that can’t be bought in our own community.

As most of you know, the Chamber supports businesses large and small in our community, and we have a fun event coming up on April 22nd at 11:30 at First Presbyterian Church. The Small Business Awards are back again and we look forward to honoring all of our nominees. These companies who are nominated put in a lot of effort showing how their business operates and how their business supports our community. Outside judges review the nominees and we celebrate the winners and all the nominees at the luncheon. Tickets are available for $23 and we would love to invite all to show your support, network and enjoy lunch with the 2025 nominees.
