Gallia County • March 17, 2025
Good morning, Gallia County. Mark your calendars for May 15 – the Mason County Chamber's 79th Annual Dinner is shaping up to be quite the economic celebration. With Brandon Dennison as keynote speaker (the economic development leader who's helped secure nearly $63 million in federal grants for West Virginia), attendees will gain insights from someone genuinely transforming the Mountain State's economic landscape. The gala will also spotlight those making Mason County more visually appealing through the "First Impression" awards – a reminder that community development starts with pride of place.
Spring has definitely sprung for the Mason County CEOS, whose calendar is blooming with activity. The community-minded group recently gathered in their St. Patrick's Day green and has cultivated an impressive lineup of events – from their "Stylin Into Spring" luncheon to recycling education at the Youth Expo. Their plant giveaway and yard sale further demonstrate how this organization continues to grow both community connections and environmental awareness throughout the season.
