Member Testimonials

Serving members at InRoads Credit Union has been my passion for the last 14 years. At the South County Chamber, we also focus on the members. We understand the value of helping local businesses succeed, which in turn grow our economy. By creating a more collaborative business climate we are contributing to greater business stability and ultimately a stronger community.

I’m reminded of a quote from Paul Allen on the topic: “Our net worth is ultimately defined not by dollars but rather by how well we serve others.”

The SCC has been the backbone of business in Columbia County for many years. I’m honored to be a part of it and feel privileged to serve and to be able to give back to the Chamber and its members.
