The Cherokee County Chamber of Commerce recently announced that Joan McFather, a longtime Chamber member and community volunteer, has been named the Chairmans Council Volunteer of the Quarter for the fourth quarter of 2017.

Members of the Chairmans Council are accepted by invitation only from the Chambers board chair. The Chairmans Council members are invited to attend ribbon cuttings and ground breakings, Coffee & Connections for new members and special invitation Chamber meetings that arent open to the general membership.

In determining the Volunteer of the Quarter, attendance at Chamber events is evaluated for all members of the Chairmans Council. Joan is a committed volunteer who gives 100% to the Chamber and its programs, said Bryan Reynolds, Chamber Board Chair and director of Cherokee Recreation and Parks Agency.
