Today's June Featured Member highlight is @downhome76450 ! The Bakehouse has been serving delicious treats and coffee for 2.5 years, and we have been lucky to have them as members the entire time!

Lynsey Browning said the support and help from the Chamber have helped them in various ways, such as advertising. "Especially through COVID and everything it’s been a really frustrating time for restaurants just because even the amount of money that goes towards advertising and marketing, you don’t have that right now. That extra help has been really good.”

The best part of owning/running a business in this community is the community itself, said Lynsey. "It feels like home, and they come in and will come to say hi to us in the kitchen. So just the community aspect of it has been a huge blessing. They all know my boys and we are just a big family.”

Fun fact: Lincoln's favorite items on the menu are sausage balls, chocolate milk, and cinnamon rolls!

Be sure to stop by and get yourself a sweet treat at Down Home Bakehouse! ...

Next up in our June Featured Member highlights… Lighthouse Therapy! For nine years, Lighthouse Therapy has served families in our community by providing physical, speech & occupational therapy for children in Graham and the surrounding areas.

Christa Cretors and Mindy Ash both agree, their greatest achievement is serving families right in their own backyard. "We knew there was a need [when we started], but it has been eye-opening as we grow just how much of a need. It is very rewarding for us to help the kids locally and see how much that help the family." said Mindy.

In addition to the new mural on their building, Christa said there are exciting updates coming to Lighthouse Therapy. "We have some exciting new sensory equipment and new specialized therapists!" The new specialized therapists will allow the Lighthouse team to offer new areas of therapy to their services. “That is a huge deal for such a small community! We have a lot of fun stuff coming,” said Mindy.

The team said their favorite Chamber event to participate in is the annual Christmas Stroll & Lighted Parade. "We do a float every year, and all our staff have fun! Our children love it a lot," said Christa. ...

Next week the Library of Graham, Texas will be stuffing backpacks for the summer reader program winners. They thought this might be a great opportunity for any chamber business to place information, or a goodie, or a magnet, or a promotional pencil or whatever in the backpacks. More the better!! They have 300 backpacks they are giving away. To participate or ask questions, please call Kelly at the Library (940-549-0600). 📗 ...

First up in our June Featured Member highlights… the office of Edward Jones - Financial Advisor: Kyle Anderson! Kyle and his team have been in business here in Graham, as well as proud chamber members, for 10 years.

In the 10 years of his business, Kyle said the thing he is most proud of are the relationships he has built with his clients. “We are not just in the investment business, we’re in the business of building relationships with our clients and doing our absolute best to give them the best personal service they can find. No matter what award we may win, that would be my proudest achievement, is the relationships that I have been able to build with my clients and the trust we have been able to earn with them.”

Looking back on their time with the Chamber, Kyle and Melanie both remember their ribbon cutting as one of their favorite memories. “We were getting a new start in a fresh building. Having all the chamber members and red coats over was a proud moment,” Kyle said. “We earned our own identity that day,” added Melanie.

When asked how the Chamber has supported him best in his business journey, Kyle said, “The networking has helped. When I was first starting my business, it was able to take a person that did not grow up here and allowed me to get to know people quicker.”

Keep up the good work Kyle & Melanie! ...
