Brown says, “Representing Hopkins County has always been a desire of mine.  When the opportunity to interview for the President of the Chamber arose, I pursued it wholeheartedly. I’m taking the reigns from Meredith Caddell whom has worked alongside her Chamber board members so diligently to move the chamber into a wonderful place.   It is because of their hard work I will be able to step in and continue their mission of moving the chamber forward.”

She continues on to say that one of the aspects she most enjoys about this position is creating new relationships and furthering existing ones and that meeting new people is one of the best parts of the day.

The Chamber represents Hopkins County in the most positive way possible, promotes business and industry, strives for their successes, and brings awareness to local businesses that help make Hopkins County such a wonderful place to live.

Lezley Brown plans to bring new adventures and opportunities to the Hopkins County Chamber of Commerce. This is an exciting time for Hopkins County, Sulphur Springs, and the Chamber of Commerce. We encourage you to join us on this adventure!
