Recipe of the Week: Fresh Lemon Ice Cream

July is fast approaching and that could only mean it’s time for the Tennessee Walking Horse. This year’s Classic is Friday, July 13 and promises to be another great show. As usual, all proceeds from concessions go to the Carl Perkins Center for Child Abuse Prevention, so plan on taking the whole family for this fun event.

I understand Relay for Life reached and surpassed its goal this year with over $81,000 raised. Congratulations to all involved. Great Job!

The board room at the chamber has officially been named in memory of former Mayor Jimmy Halbrook. Friends, family and officials gathered Thursday, June 21, to pay homage to the good works of Mayor Halbrook. During Halbrook’s administration, he was instrumental in seeing that the Carnegie Library building was preserved as a useful space when the new library was built. The space has definitely been useful, and continues to be, as home for our Chamber of Commerce – a fitting place for the “Jimmy Halbrook Room.”

Hope you have a safe and fun 4th of July.
