Vernon Chamber of Commerce aids locals and vets impostors
The Vernon chamber confirms it collected a 21.95 check from a local company after failed attempts to locate the maker. It reports recovering lost household goods, investigating charity solicitations, and noting several fake applicants. The chamber maintains a fund for transient aid, requires investigations, and has thwarted multiple choosers seeking endorsements. A bearing set for an electric motor was supplied through chamber action after other efforts failed. An May order from a local business to a Dallas distributor is noted.
