CONGRATULATIONS TO BROWN & BOUJEE: OFFICIAL CATERER FOR THE 15TH ANNUAL CELEBRITY GOLF TOURNAMENT

2026 Jewel Award Recipient recognized as a featured Legacy Chamber member and official event partner

The Legacy Chamber of West Tennessee proudly congratulates Brown & Boujee Catering, the Chamber’s 2026 Jewel Award Recipient and the Official Caterer for the 15th Annual Celebrity Golf Tournament.

The recognition represents an exciting opportunity for a growing West Tennessee business to bring its expertise to one of the Legacy Chamber’s signature events while demonstrating the value of having capable businesses connected to the Chamber’s membership.

For the Legacy Chamber, this is about more than selecting a caterer. It reflects a broader commitment to knowing its members, recognizing their capabilities, and creating opportunities for qualified businesses to do business.

LOOKING WITHIN FIRST

When Deswick Bonds Jr. took the office of Executive Director, he made a commitment to approach the Chamber’s membership differently by intentionally looking within the membership before looking outside for opportunities.

“Upon taking the office of Executive Director, I made a commitment to our members that we would look within first before going outside for opportunities. If our members can handle the task, if they are properly prepared, and if they can deliver at the level the opportunity requires, then why wouldn’t we circulate those dollars within our own membership?”

Deswick Bonds Jr., Executive Director, Legacy Chamber of West Tennessee

That philosophy is not about giving a business an opportunity simply because it holds Chamber membership.

It is about recognizing when a member has the experience, preparation, professionalism, and capacity to meet the demands of an assignment.

Brown & Boujee represents that opportunity.

The Chamber’s role is to understand who its members are, what they do, what services they provide, and where their capabilities can align with opportunities that come through the organization.

As Bonds puts it, “That’s the point of having a membership database.”

A membership database should be more than a collection of names, phone numbers, email addresses, and business listings. When used intentionally, it can help an organization understand the businesses behind its membership and identify opportunities to connect those businesses with customers, partners, contracts, events, and other meaningful opportunities.

BROWN & BOUJEE BRINGS EXPERIENCE TO THE TABLE

Brown & Boujee Catering is not being selected simply because they are a Legacy Chamber member.

The company has demonstrated experience handling catering assignments and working with established organizations and brands, including Black & Decker and others.

That experience matters when an organization is entrusting a business with an assignment connected to a high-profile event.

The opportunity requires preparation, execution, professionalism, and the ability to deliver.

Brown & Boujee has demonstrated the ability to operate in environments where those expectations matter.

That makes this partnership a natural fit for the 15th Annual Celebrity Golf Tournament.

It also gives the Legacy Chamber an opportunity to showcase one of its members in front of business leaders, entrepreneurs, corporate partners, industry professionals, community stakeholders, and guests attending the tournament.

CELEBRATING THE 15TH ANNUAL CELEBRITY GOLF TOURNAMENT

The 15th Annual Celebrity Golf Tournament is an important part of the Legacy Chamber’s work to bring people together around business, relationships, entrepreneurship, and community impact.

The Chamber is focused on making the tournament bigger and more impactful each year.

As the event continues to grow, so does its ability to bring together business owners, corporate leaders, entrepreneurs, industry leaders, Chamber members, community stakeholders, celebrities, special guests, and supporters of initiatives focused on business development and entrepreneurship.

The tournament is designed to create an environment where relationships can be built while attendees enjoy a memorable experience.

It is business networking with a social atmosphere, but it also carries a larger purpose.

GROWING FOLLOW ME INTO BUSINESS

Support surrounding the 15th Annual Celebrity Golf Tournament helps advance the Legacy Chamber’s Follow Me Into Business initiative.

The initiative is part of the Chamber’s broader commitment to business development, entrepreneurship, and creating pathways for the next generation of business leaders.

That purpose gives the tournament significance beyond the golf course.

Attendees have the opportunity to enjoy the event, meet influential people, build relationships, participate in the entertainment, and support an initiative designed to contribute to the future of business in the region.

The tournament is entertainment with a purpose.

And as the event grows, the Legacy Chamber hopes to expand its reach, increase participation, strengthen partnerships, and create an even greater impact for the businesses and communities it serves.

A MEMBER SPOTLIGHT WORTH CELEBRATING

Brown & Boujee’s recognition as the 2026 Jewel Award Recipient makes this Member Spotlight especially significant.

The Chamber is proud to recognize Brown & Boujee not only for its connection to the organization, but for the opportunity to showcase the capabilities of a business that has earned the trust to serve at a major Chamber event.

The Official Caterer designation places Brown & Boujee in a visible role during the 15th Annual Celebrity Golf Tournament and gives attendees another opportunity to experience the work of a West Tennessee business.

For the Legacy Chamber, that is what membership should help create: relationships, visibility, opportunities, and meaningful connections between businesses and the people who support them.

Congratulations to Brown & Boujee Catering on being named the 2026 Jewel Award Recipient and Official Caterer for the 15th Annual Celebrity Golf Tournament.
