We had a great day yesterday talking about “Collaboration Through a Time of Growth” in a special panel discussion with our Wetumpka team at the Stand-Up Rural America Regional Forum.

The panel included City of Wetumpka representatives Lynn Weldon, Director of Economic Development, Andrew Stieb, Director of Tourism and Communications, Haley Greene, Executive Director of Main Street Wetumpka, and Vanessa Royal, Executive Director of the Wetumpka Area Chamber of Commerce.

The conversation focused on the power of working together to support smart growth, strengthen local businesses, and preserve what makes Wetumpka so special.

It was such a fun and energizing time connecting, sharing ideas, and having meaningful conversations about where we’ve been and where we’re headed.

Grateful to be part of a team that truly believes in working together to move our community forward. 💙
