ALBANY, GA --
The Albany Area Chamber of Commerce held a meet and greet Tuesday evening to introduce their new top official.

Chris Hardy is the new President and CEO of the Albany Area Chamber of Commerce.  He previously worked at the Chamber of Commerce in Clemson South Carolina.  Hardy says he’s excited to be in Albany. 

“Well I think one of the things that I’ve seen is people are extremely gracious in the welcoming that I’ve received.  It’s been really humbling for how many people have reached out to us and welcomed us to the area.  That’s something you don’t see very often” says Hardy.
