The Greater Taylorville Chamber of Commerce is gearing up for a busy summer. They have events planned throughout the season – especially on weekends – to bring businesses and their owners together, educate community members, and help the local economy thrive.
Their summer offerings begin with the Professional Development Series. The first seminar, scheduled for June 10, is called “Social Security Vitals.” Krystal Baker, Board President of the GTCC, says the course helps people take full advantage of the public offering.
A second course, called “Climate & Insurance,” is set for June 18.
The GTCC is also preparing for a host of promotions and other events intended to boost traffic to member businesses. Among them, Small Town Taylorville holds its weekend sales event June 6-7, while Sydney Lynn’s Little Book Shop is holding a book signing on June 27.
The Chamber will be involved in the State of Illinois Career Fair on July 9 at the Taylorville VFW. April Wolfe, Interim Operations Coordinator with the GTCC, says the career fair helps prospective employees navigate the unique processes involving public-sector work.
Finally, the public has this year’s edition of Chillifest to look forward to. The GTCC is seeking sponsors for the event, and there are several tiers available.

Krystal Baker and April Wolfe appeared as guests on the WTIM Morning Show.
