2017 Chamber Awards Banquet
Shelby County Chamber of Commerce & Industry Award Banquet on February 24th, 2017. Food, fun, entertainment, and recognition of some of Shelby County's finest. We had a huge year with a number of accomplishments (see news) and the awards banquet was a complete success that was completely sold out ... meaning we need to use a larger facility next banquet!

Once again this year, the event featured live entertainment. Jeff Quinn, a local hypnotist & corporate magician. Jeff is a skilled, trained hypnotist. Not only does Jeff have the skill that comes from performing hundreds of shows, but he was initially trained by some of the top stage hypnotists in the world, including the Dean of American Hypnotists, the late Ormond McGill. Jeff presented a clean, unoffensive, entertaining show that was entertaining to all ages using 8 volunteers. Remarkably, one audience member fell under hypnosis twice during the show which was a lot of fun!
