We Invite You to
The undersigned citizens of Athens, knowing that no city can prop
erly f unction without a civic organization of the type of a modern
Chamber of Commerce and realizing that only a small minority has
made up the Athens Chamber of Commerce in past years, have pledg
ed our membership to a Reorganized Chamber to which we believe,
the great majority of our citizens, both men and women, will give
their support. ’ ' .
For fifteen years or more our Chamber of Commerce has been
supported by the interest of only a few men, with contributions
scarcely sufficient to pay the salary of a Secretary. This plan has en
abled the Ch*amber to do very little effective work for the advance
ment of the city. To achieve REAL SUCCESS we must build an en
tirely new organization on an entirely new plan.
This plan includes the election of a new Board of Directors by the
following method. Each member will receive by mail a list of the en
tire membership with a ballot on which he or she may nominate Four
teen Directors. When all nominations are in and counted by a commit
tee on election, the twenty-eight receiving the largest vote will be de
clared the nominees. A printed ballot containing these twenty-eight
names will then be re-submitted to the entire membership and the
fourteen receiving the highest vote will be declared elected Directors.
Thes£ Directors will then elect officers who will guide the Chamber’s
activities for the ensuing year.
. The Board of Directors will adopt a program of work for the
Chamber to carry out the GREATEST NEED for the advancement of
Athens as this need appears to the entire membership.
There are three N or four major projects critical to the welfare of
Athens.
What are these projects? It is for the membership to decide.
How?
By forum discussions and frequent conferences.
When the program is determined, then .the entire membership will
join hands to bring about its accomplishment.
Cooperation we must have if Athens is to progress.
We cannot stand still. We must go forward or backwards.
Which will it be?
There are hundreds of you, who read this, who have not had op
portunity to join with us. We know you love Athens as much as we do
and we invite you to join with us in making a new organization that
will bring real prosperity to Athen
If your name is not here, come to the Conference with us tomor
row morning (Monday) at 10 o’clock at the Georgian Hotel. You will
see a new spirit that will give you greater faith in Athens and our fu
ture.
We, three hundred and twenty-nine strong, representing every line
of business, trade and profession, have joined this movement for a
greater Athens through a greater Chamber of Commerce. We want
you to have your place in our ranks. Next Sunday a complete list of
the membership will be published.
WE WANT YOU WITH US
