Grove told commissioners that the chamber along with Gulf Coast Community College was hosting a free Social Media Workshop on Wednesday, Sept 23 from 5:30PM to 7:00PM at the Apalachicola Battery Park Community Center.

J.P. Ferrell, vice president and partner of 5th Gear Creative Group out of Dothan and Panama City will be conducting the interactive workshop on social media such as Facebook, Linkedin, Twitter, YouTube, and other online social networks.
