In November 2020, the Greater Easley Chamber of Commerce proudly launched the Downtown Easley Business Council (DEBC) to provide support to businesses located in the TIF District of downtown. Our DEBC is led by a group of six Advisory Board members, and each year, the Advisory Board honors one of its members who has led by example and has kept others motivated & engaged in the downtown district. As part of the Greater Easley Chamber of Commerce 76th Annual Meeting & Awards Celebration on March 14, Amber Davis with Thrive Chiropractic was honored as the 2023 DEBC Advisory Board Member of the Year. In 2023, our DEBC launched a new program called Downtown Easley...Always in Season, which is a seasonal event focused on promoting downtown Easley to visitors and creating increased foot traffic for our merchants and restaurants. But our advisory board wanted something more vibrant for our downtown area, and after a few brainstorming meetings, the idea of creating a mural was born. Amber immediately put her creative talents to work and helped guide discussions to determine possible mural locations and graphic concepts. And when it was decided that sponsorships could not only help with funding the project, but also create added enthusiasm, she single-handedly developed a professional sponsorship package to meet our needs. As a leader, Amber is recognized by her peers as steady, organized, hardworking, supportive, and always willing to go the extra mile. Thanks to her steady leadership, the mural project will come to fruition in 2024 to commemorate Easley’s sesquicentennial celebration, creating a lasting legacy for our community. Please join Greater Easley Chamber of Commerce and the Downtown Easley Business Council in honoring Amber Davis as the 2023 DEBC Advisory Board Member of the Year.
