In the 60?s the Chamber’s main thrusts were to attract new industry to the Town and to develop ways to handle requests for information about Wake Forest with a new brochure. The Chamber board (led by then-President John Wooten) and members worked very hard to attract new industry. They spent a lot of time working with the NC Department of Conservation & Development, as well as visits with Schrader plant officials in New York, in order to get the plant in Wake Forest. While Mr. Wooten celebrated the achievement of getting the Schrader Plant to locate in Wake Forest, he also reminded the members and board that they should not forget the established industries in Town.
