Regional Branding Initiative Making Progress
 

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.
