Chamber Member Meeting
Membership Directory in Plans
Very soon a representative from The Sequoyah County Times will be visiting with you, the Chamber member, about placing advertising in the upcoming Sallisaw Chamber of Commerce Membership Directory.
In the past, the Chamber has sent the local phone book to prospective residents and visitors to our community. Increased postage and an obligation to our Chamber members has spurred the idea of creating our own directory. Therefore, upon completion of the directory the phone book will no longer be mailed from our office. Only the new Chamber directory will be sent.
Every Chamber member will be listed twice in the publication. Once in alpha order and again under the “services provided” portion. The advertising rates will be discussed with each of you when the Times come to visit.
We are very excited to soon have our professionally produced directory
available to everyone!

Tourism Buzz to be Held in Sallisaw
The Sallisaw Chamber of Commerce
Conference Room will be the site for one of six Tourism Buzz Meetings
held throughout the State of Oklahoma.
We feel very fortunate to have been chosen for this event. The meetings
will feature open discussion on new tourism developments and on issues
important to the tourism industry and its partners.
In Oklahoma, tourism is a multi-million dollar industry which provides jobs for many of our residents. For this reason, it is important for us to always be informed of new trends in tourism and share information and resources that aid us in reaching our full potential.
We encourage all Chamber members interested in the tourism industry to attend this great meeting. If you would like to attend, please contact Robin at 775-2558 to make your reservation. The meeting will be from 10:00 a.m. to noon on Tuesday, April 8th. Several members of the Oklahoma Tourism and Recreation Department will be on hand to answer questions and share information.
Another meeting of interest to you, the Chamber member, is a tourism meeting with the Cherokee Nation, the Chamber leadership and representatives from the Tourism Deparment on March 31st. Ideas for future attractions in Sallisaw will be discussed. If you would like to attend, once again, please contact Robin at the Chamber Office.

Sequoyah County Junior Livestock Show-Largest Ever!
The Annual Sequoyah County Junior Livestock Show was held on February 28th and 29th at the Fair Grounds. There were 68 FFA and 4-H students who made the Premium Sale with their animals. At the end of the night, we had logged in a record of over $72,000 in purchases and add-on money for the students.
The following week, more add-ons of approximately $1500 were taken in at the Chamber Office. This is a record amount of income to these students.
