The Calhoun County Chamber of Commerce held a most successful Business After Hours last night, June 10, 2010 at the Calhoun Country Club.  This BAH was sponsored by the Calhoun Country Club and Wachovia Bank.  

The evening started at 5:30 with a terrific spread of delicious finger foods, scrumptious dips and fresh fruits.  Also, no June night would be complete without serving true southern sweet tea.  The crowd came in and grew and grew.  Great fellowship and networking was experienced by all.

Our presentation started at 6:15 with Brent Crenshaw, President of the Chamber, welcoming everyone and introducing Mr. Bob Hooper of the Calhoun Country Club, one of the sponsors of the night.
