"For the past few years\, the Chamber leadership has been focused on working together for the betterment of our two communities.  For the most part\, our two communities are focused on the same issues and it makes sense for us to join forces and take a larger delegation to Austin to visit with our legislators and associations to advocate for Deep East Texas." \n\nThe two-day trip will begin on February 15 with a series of targeted meetings and presentations and will conclude on the evening of February 16 with a joint legislative reception. The reception will be held from 5:30 PM until 7:30 PM at the Austin Club at 110 E. 9th Street in Austin. A buffet and beverages will be provided to attendees.\nYou may also contact the Lufkin/Angelina County Chamber at 936-634-6644 or email RSVP@LufkinTexas.org. Questions?
