President's Message
24th Roswell Relays

Thanks to Bruce Smith, Mindy Jones, and all of you who volunteered at the 24th Roswell Relays. The day pulled off without a hitch!

Gauging from the smiles on the winning team, Sequoyah, it was an extremely rewarding day.


This Week's Speakers
State of the City


Roswell Mayor Lori Henry

Prior to being elected as Mayor in 2018, Lori previously served as a Roswell City Councilmember from 2001-2009 and in 2017. She has a strong history of public service and has served her community not only on City Council but also as a member of the Design Review Board, the Community Development Advisory Committee, and on several citizen advisory groups over the years. She is the owner of a small business, H and B Promotional Products, located near Roswell's Historic District. Lori uses her business experience not only to attract businesses to Roswell, but also to apply sound business practices to government.

Lori and her husband, Karl have been long time residents of Roswell, where they raised their now adult daughter, Scottie. Lori moved to Roswell as a young adult with her parents, who lived in Martin’s Landing for over 35 years. Lori is a graduate of Ohio State University and began her career as a Cobb County public school teacher.

Steve Stroud

Steve Stroud is the Executive Director of Roswell Inc, a 501c6 nonprofit that promotes economic development through a public-private partnership with the City of Roswell. Since the organization's inception in 2012, Stroud has held this position. Under his leadership, Roswell Inc has developed networking, educational and support programs for small businesses, marketed Roswell’s Opportunity Zone to increase the number of certifications, and worked one-on-one with business owners, entrepreneurs and state project managers to retain, expand and recruit businesses to Roswell.

Over the last 3 year’s Roswell Inc has worked on nearly 300 projects, creating or retaining more than 4,000 jobs and generating more than $2.25 million in one-time generated revenue and $1.95 million in cumulative annual revenue. Notable projects include Brixmor, Delta Dental, McKesson, and 3 new business-class hotels—SpringHill Suites, Home2 Suites and Element by Westin. Stroud and his team continue to position Roswell as one of the premier cities in the region for innovative, community-minded businesses and entrepreneurs.
