CONTRIBUTED BY THE OPELIKA CHAMBER

OPELIKA — The Opelika Chamber of Commerce recently named Shey Knight as the 2024 REACH Campaign chair. A long time Opelika native who said he whole heartedly believes in this town and is passionate to see the business community thrive, Knight, the current co-owner of Autosport Bodyworks and Tints and owner of Insurance Solutions Group, is exactly what this year’s REACH campaign needs.

The REACH campaign develops the leadership and financial resources of the Opelika Chamber of Commerce through a strategic business development program. Led by an all-volunteer group, REACH secures business sponsors for the Chamber’s comprehensive program of work while attracting new members. These programs support our mission of promoting the business interests of members through building bridges, cultivating community, elevating business and achieving excellence.

“We are beyond excited to have Shey at the helm of our REACH Campaign and look forward to helping businesses optimize their marketing budget by directing them to chamber programs that align with their specific business interests,” Opelika Chamber Vice President Mackenzie Poole said.

Ivor. I was on the 49th floor of the North Tower of WTC when the plane crashed in the building. To remember the fallen and appreciate the ongoing wonderful work of "My Real Super Heroes" (the firefighters, police force, first responders and armed forces), we have organized a "We Remember 9/11." I will personally be there to meet and thank my heroes.

This year on Sept. 11, we are going to host the "We Remember 9/11" at Philly Connection, located at 2328 S. College St. in Auburn.

For the 19th year in a row, Philly connection will be honored to host "The Real Super Heroes" for complementary meal on 9/11.

The invitation is open from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.

We all need to thank and appreciate "The Real Super Heroes".

I will appreciate this being shared with the community. Community awareness is important to the cause.

Thank you.
