U.S. Senator Raphael Warnock’s Outreach Representative Visits Chaparral and Robalo Boats’ Manufacturing Facility in Southwest Georgia
Earlier this month, Adrian Rivers, the Southwest Georgia Outreach Representative for the office of U.S. Senator Raphael Warnock (D-GA), visited the Chaparral and Robalo boat manufacturing facility in Nashville, Georgia. The tour, led by Ann Baldree, Senior Vice President of Chaparral & Robalo, showcased the combined 1.2 million square foot facility that employs over 700 people in South Georgia.
During the visit, Mr. Rivers spoke to employees in honor of Administrative Professionals Day, toured the plants, and learned more about company operations while discussing industry priorities. Additionally, Senator Warnock is a current member of the Congressional Boating Caucus, a bipartisan group of U.S. senators and representatives formed in 1989 to advocate for the interests of the recreational boating industry.
Senior Vice President Baldree thanked Mr. Rivers for visiting Chaparral & Robalo Boats, stating, “Thank you, Adrian, for taking the time to visit our facility. We appreciate your commitment to learning more about our industry and its financial impact on our region and the entire state. We also thank Senator Warnock for being a member of the Boating Caucus.”
