Jackson Parish Chamber of Commerce President, Karen Tolar, is excited to announce that the Annual Chamber Banquet will be April 1st. The guest speaker will be Lieutenant Governor Billy Nungesser. The venue is Family Life Center at First Baptist Church Jonesboro. Event will begin at 6 PM with a social hour and silent auction. Program and dinner at 7 PM. It’s sure to be a memorable evening for everyone involved. Dress for the occasion will be business dress.

Billy Nungesser left a career as a successful businessman to begin his political career following Hurricane Katrina. During the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, the New York Times named him the “hardest working man in Louisiana” and ABC named him Person of the Week during the same period. He continues to be the “hardest working man in Louisiana” to date on behalf of all of us.

Today Billy is second-in-command in the executive branch and Louisiana’s ambassador as Commissioner of the Department of Culture, Recreation and Tourism. From natural disasters to promoting our great state…Billy Nungesser is a man for all of Louisiana.
