The Chamber, known for connecting people and opportunities, recently demonstrated its commitment to this mission. During a dinner at our Annual Washington Fly-In in September, the Chamber brought together Congressman Buddy Carter and local Chamber member Jered LLC, fostering a valuable connection.
This visit, “Take Buddy to Work Day,” gave Representative Carter a unique, hands-on experience with welding—a vital skill that plays a significant role in Georgia’s economy. Jered’s President, Rich Partenio, had the privilege of guiding Representative Carter through the facility, while Senior Fabricator & Welder, Sully Peters, had the opportunity to introduce him to welding basics and offer him the chance to try welding himself. Representative Carter’s enthusiasm was evident as he experienced firsthand the skill and dedication required in this trade.
�We’re grateful for this opportunity to bridge the gap between policymakers and essential industries, building stronger support for community growth.
