We have been doing a lot of celebrating this month at the chamber. Last Thursday evening we celebrated the grand opening of the new location of The Sampson Independent with a ribbon cutting ceremony. With over 50 in attendance, we gathered to congratulate them on their growth and accomplishments.

Join us for another ribbon cutting celebration this afternoon at 4:30 p.m. to celebrate Southern Banks grand opening of their new location at 1008 Sunset Avenue here in Clinton. Ribbon cuttings always represent economic growth in Sampson County and we could not be more excited for Southern Banks big move.

As a Chamber, one of our goals is to provide economic growth. Keep a look out for those bright green Chamber membership decal stickers in business windows. Always shop local first to help out these businesses that chose Sampson County to call their dreams home.

Join us throughout the year to celebrate business success and to network with business owners throughout the county. For more information on upcoming events through the Chamber visit us at www.clintonsampsonchamber.org , email us at [email protected], or give us a call at 910-592-6177.
