The Northwest Georgia Trade & Convention Center is the proud home of the Junior Achievement Northwest Georgia Business Hall of Fame. The Business Hall of Fame honors those who have played an essential role in the success of commerce and community in Dalton, Georgia. Photos of the influential members are on display at all times on the wall outside the ballrooms on the second level of our facility.
Each spring, Junior Achievement holds a formal dinner and award ceremony at the NWGTCC to induct new members into this elite group. The 2009 awards ceremony was as successful as ever and as a facility we are thankful to be associated with such an influential group of Dalton citizens.
