London - Laurel County Chamber of Commerce

London - Laurel County Chamber of Commerce The mission of the London-Laurel County Chamber of Commerce is to cultivate and promote business engagement to drive lasting economic prosperity.

The London-Laurel County Chamber of Commerce is the most effective business organization committed to helping improve the economic climate and quality of life in the London and Laurel County areas. We work jointly with the city and county governments on projects that make our community a better place for everyone to live and work. The Chamber also works closely with the London-Laurel County Touris

t Commission on tourist and recreational events, and with the London-Laurel County Industrial recruitment. Each year, the Chamber office processes hundreds of potential relocation inquiries. In addition, we also handle thousands of calls for general information about London and laurel County. The Chamber strives to keep the latest demographics and statistical data available for anyone who may need special information. The members run the Chamber. All members have the same vote and and are urged to serve on committees. Members elect fifteen Directors to serve on the Chamber's Board. The Board sets the policies which govern the operation and activities of the Chamber. Volunteer committees are established to accomplish the organization's goals and objectives. Activities of the Chamber are supported by a full-time professional staff which manages all Chamber operations. Most of the money necessary to maintain the Chamber's office and carry on the activities of its committees comes from membership investments. These investments, paid annually, are apportioned among its members consisting of individuals, businesses, industries, and professionals. Since the Chamber is not a government agency, it does not receive tax support, although the City and County provide assistance through economic development funds.

Food Truck Friday returns this week on Friday, June 19; Juneteenth Celebration to continue Saturday and Sunday.

Friday, June 19: Food Truck Friday takes place this week on June 19 at the London-Laurel County Farmers Market in conjunction with the weekend of Juneteenth activities that are planned for the community. A variety of food trucks will be on hand selling from 5:00–9:00 p.m. Entertainment will be provided by Joan Brannon, percussionist, instructor, drum circle facilitator, and community arts organizer; and Sistah LaLa, singer, songwriter, producer, and cultural performer.

Juneteenth (a blend of "June" and "Nineteenth") is an annual holiday commemorating the emancipation of enslaved African Americans in the United States. It marks the day, June 19, 1865, when federal troops arrived in Galveston, Texas, to ensure all enslaved people were finally freed, a full two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation, an executive order issued by President Abraham Lincoln on January 1, 1863, during the American Civil War, declaring that all enslaved individuals in the secessionist Confederate states “shall be then, thenceforward, and forever free.”

The weekend of activities is hosted by the Cumberland Chapter of Kentuckians For The Commonwealth, Laurel County African American Heritage Center, City of London, and sponsored in part by London Tourism & Parks.

The Cumberland Chapter of Kentuckians For The Commonwealth joins thousands of members across Kentucky in organizing for a fair economy, healthy environment, racial justice, and an honest democracy.

The Laurel County African American Heritage Center was founded to preserve African American heritage and history in Laurel County. Since its founding in 2004 the LCAAHC has expanded its mission and now uses the center to preserve cultural foodways, enhance community partnerships, address community food insecurity, and support food producers in the region.
