In a letter to its members emailed Thursday afternoon, Kershaw County Chamber of Commerce Board President Kimberly Dixon announced that the board authorized her to enter into discussions and, if approved, an agreement with the city of Camden to transfer ownership of the Robert Mills Courthouse to the city. “The Kershaw County Chamber of Commerce has been in existence for over 100 years and over those decades the chamber has evolved and changed with the needs of its members and the community. We are experiencing a time of change again,” Dixon said in the letter.
