The Branding & Marketing Task
Force, chaired by Brad Fink, continues its partnership with
Georgia College & State University to research, identify, develop, and
implement new branding for our region. Many of you have
participated in one or more surveys. The
research and development phase continues throughout the
summer and we will be needing much more input.
If you are interested in this issue or in learning more
about our efforts, you will want to attend a Regional
Branding Update, Monday, June 8, at 5:30 p.m. at the Warner
Robins Area Chamber. Dr. Cynthia Cano and Dr. Doreen
Sams from Georgia College & State University will review the
progress to-date. Intensive research has been
and continues to be done in Bibb, Houston, and Peach
Counties. This is a great opportunity to learn more
and to provide input. If you are interested in
attending, please call Donna Scott at 478.922.8585 to
reserve your spot at this meeting.
