Legislative Luncheon - Tues 9/23
We will host our annual Legislative Luncheon on Tuesday, September 23, 2025, at 11:30 AM at the Glennville Garden Club. We will enjoy a delicious catered meal together, then hear from each of our special guest speakers:
Representative Bill Werkheiser
Senator Blake Tillery
U.S. Representative Rick Allen.
To help cover the meal and other costs, we are looking for sponsors for this event. If you, or someone you know (feel free to share!), is interested, please contact us at the Glennville Chamber as soon as possible.
Each sponsorship comes with marketing for the sponsor during the event, both pre- and post-event advertising in the newspaper and on social media, and also includes a designated number of individual tickets depending on the sponsorship level. For individuals or those not needing a sponsorship, there are a limited number of tickets available separately as well.
We would like to have all sponsorships in no later than Sunday, August 31st if possible. That will allow us time for planning, as well as plenty of pre-event advertising for our sponsors. As always, the sooner you can get your sponsorship in, the more advertising and marketing time is available. Also, there are a limited number of seats available, and last year we had a full house and sold out, so it’s important to get your tickets/sponsorship in soon.
If you are interested or have any questions, please feel free to contact us at the Glennville Chamber office M-F 9a-2p, email director@glennvillechamber.org, or call/text (912) 237-5386. You also have the option to complete and purchase online below, if using a credit/debit card or Paypal.
With your support, we’re looking forward to another successful Legislative Luncheon in 2025!
We hope you’ll join us as we fellowship together as a community, then enjoy both an educational and insightful time with our special guests. 😊
Thank you again for your continued support!

August BUSINESS HIGHLIGHT ON...
Each month, we plan to highlight one of the Glennville Chamber's wonderful local business members.
This month's "Business Highlight" is on...
COMMUNITY RELATIONS DAY ON FORT STEWART
Board members of the Glennville Chamber of Commerce and local city officials were recently invited to participate in a Community Relations Day on Fort Stewart. The mission...to learn more about the installation and the 3rd Infantry Division: who they are, what they do, and mostly, how we can work together to help each other and our community thrive.
Attendees boarded Army buses and began with a group picture in front of 3ID mascot "Rocky", followed by a briefing from commanding officers during lunch at Club Stewart.
Next was a stop at the Marne Innovation Center to learn about the exciting things they can do there with some very advanced technology and equipment.
Then the highlight of the day--a ride in a Blackhawk helicopter to circle the installation and see it from way up high--with the doors open of course!
After a safe landing, the group trekked on to meet several military vehicles/weapons such as tanks, Bradleys, and Palidans, and received lessons on each of those from the brave soldiers that drive and operate them daily. There was even an opportunity to climb inside or on top in the turret.
After that was a tour of the virtual weapons simulator, where attendees watched some of the practicing soldiers fire away, then were invited to test their own skills firing virtual rounds at moving targets on the screen.
The day ended with a more solemn walk through Warrior's Walk, a memorial of 469 Crape Myrtle trees, each one honoring a soldier fallen while serving in Operations Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom.
We're very blessed in Glennville to have one of the largest military bases in the U.S. right next door, and many people don't even know anything about it. Community events like these are so important to build these relationships and learn more about our area and what happens just outside our small town. The helicopter ride is just the added bonus!
Thank you to the Public Relations office on Ft. Stewart/HAAF and all those that worked hard to put this event together. If you needed another reason to get involved in your community, or get involved with the Glennville Chamber, this is just one example of what its all about.
