Garrett County Chamber of Commerce celebrates successful year

From The Garrett County Republican

McHENRY — The Garrett County Chamber of Commerce hosted its annual Membership Meeting and Dinner on June 6, when chamber members and staff celebrated a highly successful year.

The Garrett County Chamber of Commerce, which began as the Mt. Top Chamber of Commerce in 1952, merged with the Garrett County/Deep Creek Lake Promotion Council in 1997.

It is now the largest professional business association in the region with 600 members representing every industry in the community. Since the two organizations merged 22 years ago, the Chamber has partnered with the county to build the Visitors Center in McHenry, launched the Art & Wine Festival and Garrett Trails, created “The Deep Creek Experience” county-wide brand, established the annual Business & Industry Appreciation program, created the annual Fire on the Mountain Fourth of July Fireworks display and garnered certification of the Mountain Maryland Gateway to the West Heritage Area.
