Putnam County has kicked off a new era of progress and representation! At the recent swearing in ceremony for elected officials, it was an inspiring sight to behold – people from all backgrounds and parties came together with hope and optimism that they could be part of something bigger.
To ensure businesses’ voices are heard throughout this journey, the Putnam County Business Council will be working closely with all these elected officials on your behalf. Be sure to reach out to us with any issues or concerns you need help with.
Putnam County Business Council is also creating a directory connecting business owners or leaders to their respective state, county or federal representatives. Look for this by the end of the month.
Please Join us! BCW Not For Profit Council Meeting 1/13/23
Do not miss this important conversation! Valuable and worthwhile for NFP executives and team members to attend.
Please also invite your Board members as well. The program is virtual and the link to register is below.
