LaGRANGE – The LaGrange-Troup County Chamber of Commerce hosted Member Appreciation Day, Schmoozapalooza Derby Style on Tuesday night to show its appreciation for chamber members with a fun event with benefits going to a local youth leadership program.

The fun event quickly filled the upstairs conference room at the chamber with people in large hats while the Kentucky Derby played in the background.

“This was a great opportunity to say thank you to our members and celebrate something fun that is actually a bit from my background – being from Kentucky – so we thought that this is a great way to add a little fun, some food and a little bit of sports and just enjoy an evening together,” said Chamber President Page Estes. “That is the best way to get our community to grow and thrive and for folks to get to know each other and have a good time.”
