Peachtree Corners City Council Recognizes 10th Anniversary of Southwest Gwinnett Chamber
On March 24, Mayor Pro Tempore Weare Gratwick and City Councilman Joe Sawyer attended the 10th Anniversary Celebration of the Southwest Gwinnett Chamber of Commerce.
During the event, Gratwick presented a copy of the Proclamation that was entered into the official Peachtree Corners record during the Council’s regular meeting held on March 22. In addition to serving as a current board member of the Southwest Gwinnett Chamber, Gratwick is a past Chairman of the organization.
“The 10th Anniversary Celebration was a chance to not only reflect back on the Chamber’s accomplishments but also look to the future and how we can continue to support businesses, schools and nonprofits,” said Gratwick. “It was rewarding to see so many folks come together and celebrate what so many have had a hand in building.”
“There is such a synergy between the vibrant cities of Peachtree Corners, Norcross and Berkeley Lake,” said SWGC Chairwoman Margie Asef. “The businesses, organizations, schools, and communities all benefit from the unified support of our local, regional and worldwide reach.”
