The Madison County Chamber of Commerce recently partnered with Madison County High School to host the 2023 MADICO MADE Youth Leadership Program. Congratulations to the following students for applying and for being selected to participate in the program: Destyn Seabolt, Sophia Xiong, Joshua Strickland, Taylor Maxwell, Kelly Harris, Noah Braswell, Aylah Jordan, Julianna Howard, Thaw Htoo and Erika Hull. 

Our program consisted of a team-building retreat at Camp Kiwanis, a community-focused session at the State of Madison County where they formulated a question for decision makers in the community, and a professional development day that would not have been possible without our facilitators:
✔️Brad Averill, UGA Extension - Madison County: networking/first impressions, social media etiquette, email etiquette
✔️Mrs. Booth, Madison County High School Culinary Arts: meal etiquette
✔️Dan and Daphne Walter, Vital Workforce Solutions: resume dos and don'ts, mock job interviews  
✔️Kalie Blevins, Bold Spring Blooms: mock job interviews  
✔️Regina Brueshaber, Gina Belles Restaurant: mock job interviews  
✔️Jennifer Sapp, Christian Roofing and Remodeling: mock job interviews  

Together, through your Chamber membership, we are diligently working to develop our future workforce and to cultivate a leadership pipeline in our community. These efforts would not be possible without your support and partnership, namely from the major sponsors listed below:
