FROM THE PRESIDENT

As president for a second term of the Wallace Chamber of Commerce, 2010 brings about an interesting year — a time of renewal — a hope there will be resurgence in our economy.

I am excited about retaining the same board as last year, and Lou Powell as my wingman. All board members bring years of experience in business, finance, and marketing. We will continue to look at new ways to enhance our services.

With your sponsorship and volunteerism, we will continue to offer the things we have in the past as we strive to make the community a better place to live, work and shop so that economic growth can continue to take place.

I would like to encourage — better yet — challenge business members to serve on various Chamber committees. It will give you the opportunity to volunteer in a way that will promote your business.

As a Chamber organization, our challenge is to work on gaining new members as well as retaining current ones. 

- We must build on our strengths. We know that some of the things we are doing work well and we want to enhance those.

 - Let’s unite in effective collaboration. Let’s work together to create something great and be the envy of the region!

 - Engage technology. If you don’t have a website, get one, start blogging and sign up on Facebook. We must NOT settle on being the small fish in the pond.

- Let’s meet diversity head on; try different things. The only failure is not trying.

Where there is NO challenge, there is NO change.

New Member Spotlight
KELLY CHIROPRACTIC

The Kelly Brothers have brought their special brand of elite Chiropractic Health Services and unmatched, extraordinary customer care to Wallace! Dr. Chad visited North Carolina and was impressed with the area, the people, the climate, the quality of life. He moved to Clinton, NC and opened his first practice there nearly twelve years ago. He was relentless in wanting his brother, Dr. Mike ( a successful practitioner in Las Vegas, NV) to come and visit…and relocate with him. Dr. Mike came, saw, moved to Wilson, NC and opened his practice ten years ago. The Kelly brothers are proud to announce that they have recently expanded their practice to include their new Wallace office. The Doctors offer a full range of Chiropractic services, therapeutic massage treatment, nutritional guidance and specific treatment for traumatic, acute injuries such as motor vehicle injuries and sports injuries. Throughout their careers, Dr. Chad and Dr. Mike have worked with professional athletes and Olympic athletes, as well as some of today’s biggest Rock Stars and Hollywood actors to help them maintain their high level of performance. Dr. Mike and Dr. Chad look forward to helping the residents of Duplin County lead healthy, happy and pain free lives. Their Wallace office is located at 112 Medical Village Drive. Their Clinton office is located in Jordan Plaza near Mathew’s Gifts and their Wilson office is located near Parkwood Mall.
