The Greater Augusta Regional Chamber of Commerce is a 501(c)(6) membership organization with a mission focused on business advocacy, community development, education, transportation, tourism and agriculture.
The overall makeup of a community starts with people and their personal dreams to make an impact on the world around them. Through the Business Excellence Awards the Chamber is able to recognize the outstanding success of exemplary businesses and individual leaders who are indeed having an impact on their Community.
Annette Medlin, President and CEO of the Chamber stated:
“It was very positive reinforcement of all the great work our local businesses are doing when during the award nomination review our winners were referred to with the words ‘innovative, visionary, strategic, mentor, dedicated, charitable, humility’. This pattern just emphasizes the quality of business leadership we have here in the Augusta County region.”
