Meet Tammy Proctor! She's the Executive Director of the Greater Topsail Area Chamber of Commerce and Tourism and she’s sitting down with Topsail Insider to share the many ways the Chamber serves local businesses, nonprofits, residents, and visitors of our beautiful beach towns from Sneads Ferry down to Scotts Hill! She’s a wealth of information with an extensive background in tourism and has been recognized by the Biz 100 twice as a “Connector” for her work in the Chamber of Commerce as well as Pender County Tourism. Enjoy!
