Henry Walker-2023 Telfair County Man of the Year

Henry Walker actively supports the people of our community. He sponsors the Telfair County Athletic Booster Club, the Volunteer Firefighters, the  recreation department, promotes the Chamber of Commerce to his clients, and supports many other organizations throughout Telfair County and the state of GA. This person has won numerous awards for his business, but it’s his love and dedication to his employees, the work ethic he demonstrates, and his love of Christ that makes his business stand out. He often prays over each employee, family member, and over his business.     

Mr. Walker exhibits high morals and upstanding character. He is an active member of McRae Methodist Church where he serves on multiple committees and supports new initiatives to help his church grow. He instilled in his family the importance of love, family time, a strong work ethic, and the importance of serving and helping others.

She is a member of the Chamber, Rotary and works closely with the Economic Development Authority.  Our Woman of the Year goes above and beyond her job description.  She constantly strives to better educate herself on ways to serve the needs of Telfair County and to remain abreast of economic development opportunities that become available through the State of Georgia and other organizations. She networks and collaborates with people from other counties and regions to bring us new ideas and opportunities. She is a member of the Magnolia Midlands Travel Association through which she promotes tourism for Telfair County. She eats, sleeps, dines and plays in Telfair County.
