About Us | ChattoogaRiverGroup

Our Team.

The Chattooga River Group was formed in 2021 with a mission to improve the beauty in and around the Chattooga River in Chattooga County, enjoyment on the river, and preservation and conservation of the river.

Meet our Board of Directors:

Joshua Powell

Josh is a Chattooga County Sheriff's Deputy and an avid river enthusiast and busy volunteer in his off-time.
He happily volunteered as our Chair.

Harrison Couch

Harrison is fairly new to the area, but you wouldn't know it by his passion for the river and for the people.
He is serving as our Vice-Chair.

John Sterner

John heads the CERT team in Chattooga County and manages a local bank branch. That is just one reason he fits the Treasurer position on our board.

Cindy McGraw

Cindy is the ED at the Chattooga Chamber and is filing paperwork and coordinating the fest as Secretary for CRG. She loves the outdoors, especially in Chattooga Co.

Blake Elsberry

As Sole Commissioner for Chattooga County, Blake dove in on making the Chattooga River a better place for families, business and the overall economy. It was his vision which started this group.
