Welcome to Jacksonville Texas !
I want to welcome you to a very exciting 2022 on behalf of the Chamber of Commerce . I have had the privilege of working with and serving with a vast amount of business leaders , community members , educators , government representatives and officials . I am honored to serve as Chairman of the Board for 2022 . I follow a strong legacy of leaders who have worked together with the staff , board , community , and businesses to make Jacksonville a great place to live , work , and play . Over the years , we have elected a very diverse group to our Board of Directors to ensure that our community is represented . The board is a collection of business representatives and individuals who help ensure the Chamber is moving forward with our members best interest in mind .
There is no better time to be a member of the Chamber . We are starting this year off with 149 new Chamber members that joined the Chamber during our 2021 Membership Drive . As a Manager for Republic Services , I quickly learned that the Chamber was committed to teaming up with businesses and individuals to ensure our community flourishes . The Chamber ’ s main priority is your business .
Duane Weatherford Chairman Republic Services
Just becoming a member of the Jacksonville Chamber isn ’ t enough .
