Chick Power at the Chamber!

Ah, super cute. That's Jenna Bush Hager — Today Show correspondent, children’s book author and teacher and, yep, daughter of Dub-ya. She's darling, and she's the featured speaker at the Chamber's 71st Annual Meeting dinner, Thursday, Jan. 21, at the Carson Center. Drinkys and Artisan Kitchen hors d'oeuvres begin at 6 p.m., the program and awards around 7:30 p.m. It's a definite Chick Power Night (Oh, yay, CPN, a new acronym! Nikki, we need a logo!) as the lovely Suzanne Farmer of Lourdes Hospital is the evening's emcee and, for the first time ever, the historic passing of the Chamber gavel from one high-powered executive woman to another — Susan Guess of Paducah Bank turns the Chamber chairpersonship over to Helen Sims of Superior Home Care. Plus, it's black-tie optional, and you know how we women love us some men in black tie. So rock on, women of Paducah! Sisters are taking a nice big step forward. And perhaps a not-too-distant future speaker will also be the daughter of a president — only she'll call her mom. Tix are still available. Just call the Chamber, 443.1746. See you there!
