Community Announcements

Greetings from the Chamber!

All around us we see signs of the holidays approaching fast! There are Christmas decorations, Christmas toys, Christmas candy and even Christmas clothing in stores. Before the rush begins and your time is limited, the Chamber would like to ask for your help. The Sylvester-Worth County Chamber of Commerce will be sponsoring the annual Christmas Clearing House again this year.


This program requires help from the community. The Chamber hopes you will fill out the form and return it to P.O. Box 768, Sylvester, Georgia, 31791 or stop it by the Chamber. You can participate in one of the several different ways (See Below). Without your participation, there will be a child or a family in Worth County who will not experience a MERRY CHRISTMAS.

Thank you for your help and support with our Christmas Clearing House.
