The Natchez-Adams County Chamber of Commerce invites the public to celebrate 102 years of investment in our community.

Mark your calendars for 6 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 26, at the Natchez Convention Center. We are having a party with lots of food and wine prepared by Natchez’s finest chefs. Live music will be provided by Jazz at Sunset for your listening and dancing enjoyment.

We are fortunate to have Marshall Ramsey, editorial cartoonist for the Clarion Ledger and two-time Pulitzer finalist who is nationally syndicated by Copley News Service. He is our “toast master” and will help us honor our past and current businesses.

This year, two Natchezian Awards will be given to a man and a woman who have given unselfishly of their time and effort for the betterment of Natchez and Adams County. A special presentation will also be awarded to a small business and large business that has been successful as a company and as a member in the community.

The cost of the tickets is $75 for members and $100 for future members.

Your company may purchase a platinum sponsorship at $2,000 (20 seats), gold sponsorship at $1,000 (10 seats), silver sponsorship at $500 (five seats) or $250 (two seats).

All sponsorships will receive special recognition.

We look forward to a fun-filled evening, and hope you will join us in our celebration of Natchez.

And, as always, we appreciate your support of the Natchez-Adams County Chamber and our mission to foster a positive business voice for the community.

Debbie Hudson is the president of the Natchez-Adams County Chamber of Commerce.
