Ribbon cuttings for new members, Business After Hours and fund raisers for the Chamber building fund have dominated activities for the Cherokee County Chamber of Commerce in 2007. The year began with the annual dinner in January, followed by a Chef's Night and Auction at the Longhouse Restaurant and Bar in March; the Spring Into Spring celebration planned by the Ambassador Roundtable in April, and a Fish Fry and Boat Show in June. Major activities will conclude with the Sixth Business Expo and Job Fair in September and the 12th Annual Chili Cook Off in October.
