The Lumberton Area Chamber Image Committee Meet the members of your Chamber's Image Committee who are working every day to broadcast ALL THE GOOD in Robeson County. Read all about it by liking our Facebook page, TRENDING IN ROBESON. Members from left to right are Jason King, Linda Branch, Mac Malloy, Monica Pevia, Cindy Kern, Allen Elks, Mickey Gregory, Linda Scoggins, Lisa Hunt, Suzanne Abbott, Chair and Emily Jones. (Not pictured is Sarah Beth Ward, City of Lumberton liaison). This Committee meets monthly and most recently toured the UNCP Thomas Entrepreneurship Hub and heard from speakers Beth Wilkerson and Channing Jones. Many ideas were exchanged on ways to increase and broadcast positive information on our County. TRENDING IN ROBESON is a tool every business can use to promote Lumberton to prospective employees, businesses, home buyers, visitors, etc.
The Fig Tree Inn Bed and Breakfast located at 308 Trinity Street in Fairmont
was built in 1910 as a private residence by a prominent local landowner. The
residence remained in the family until the 1990’s at which time it was sold
twice over a short period of time. The house sat vacant for years and
deteriorated. In 2006 we purchased the neglected property and began
restoration. The property opened its doors as a bed and breakfast in March
of this year (2023). The B&B offers three themed bedrooms with breakfast
included, daily baked goods and refreshments, indoor sunroom and library,
relaxing porches and beautiful gardens, and is open year-round. Give them a
call at (570)789-0164 or (336)214-5054
The Lumberton Area Chamber of Commerce contributed maps and Lumberton Chamber directories for the Welcome bags to be presented to the Dixie Youth State Tournament participants. Pictured is Jennifer Stephenson, Chamber Chairperson getting the materials together.
