In this May 2026 episode of DeKalb County Chamber Chat, we shine a spotlight on our newest Chamber members: Sullivan Walter Homes, Mid TN Disposal, and Jack Schroeder & Associates. We also share industrial updates from SHIROKI North America and Tenneco, highlighting their impact on our local economy.

On the community side, we feature programs and events from The Spot youth center, First Baptist Church, the Smithville Merchants Alliance, the Smithville Study Club Art Show, and Leadership DeKalb. Plus, we give you a sneak peek at upcoming events including the Cornbread Festival, DeKalb County Cleanup, and the Older Americans Day celebration.
