Wilson County CVB Branch of the North Pole Post OFice!

Written by Lebanon Wilson Chamber Marketing on . Posted in Chamber Blog.

PRESS RELEASE – November 21, 2025.

As you may know, the Wilson County CVB is in the Historic Federal Post Office building, located at 203 E. Main St., Lebanon, TN, just a block from the Historic Lebanon Square. The CVB is proud to call it home and this Christmas season we are sharing that pride with our community.

Early this month, we started conversations with some of Santa’s staF with the North Pole Postal Service and we are happy to announce that we have been granted (unoFicially) the title of Wilson County Branch of the North Pole Post O6ice. Come by and visit our beautifully decorated lobby, write a letter to Santa, stamp it, and send it on its way to the North Pole! “The certification wasn’t easy”, says Tourism Director, Jason Johnson. “Luckily, the postage side of things was much easier than what our postal workers must go through. Especially since we’re only mailing to one address, but the North Pole/Christmas side of our training was a little stressful. Naming all eight reindeer on the spot, listing all the gifts on the Twelve Days of Christmas, knowing to watch out, not pout, not cry… I’m just glad they graded the cookie baking on a curve; I still struggle with a good gingerbread recipe. Now that we are getting close, there are logistics that I didn’t even think about. A reindeer landing pad on the roof for the Express Mail!?! And, speaking of reindeer, Edwards Feed here in town had to go through six diFerent distributors to find us a North Pole Reindeer Blend feed. Deer corn blended with candy canes, who knew?”

Starting Monday, November 24, come by and see our beautifully decorated Historic Post Office and mail your letter to Santa.

Wilson County North Pole Post OFice hours are Monday-Friday, 8a-4p. Additionally, we will be open during some of our community’s many wonderful Holiday events such as the Lebanon Christmas Parade (Dec. 7) and Christmas on the Square (Dec.13).

The North Pole Post OFice will be closed November 27 & 28 for Thanksgiving.

2025 Small Business Season Launches

Written by Lebanon Wilson Chamber Marketing on . Posted in Chamber Blog.

The Lebanon Wilson County Chamber of Commerce proudly announces the launch of its 2025 Small Business Season, a community-wide initiative celebrating the businesses that keep the local economy thriving. Running from November 1 through December 31, this year’s campaign carries the powerful message: Every Purchase Has a Purpose.

Every time you choose to shop or dine local, you’re buying more than a product or service. You’re investing in dreams, jobs, and the uniqueness of our community. Small Business Season reminds us that local choices have a lasting impact. Together, we can help our neighbors and community thrive.

Small Business Season encourages residents to explore neighborhood favorites, discover new local gems, and share their experiences to help others do the same. From boutique shopping and dining at family-owned restaurants to attending festive community events, this initiative highlights the role small businesses play in making Lebanon and Wilson County a vibrant and connected place to live.

When you support local businesses, you’re helping fund our schools, youth programs, and community causes. Local spending builds momentum, powering the people, places, and possibilities that define our community. Data shows that for every $100 spent at a local business, approximately $68 stays in the community, compared to only $43 at a national chain. That money supports local jobs, infrastructure and essential services — creating a ripple effect that benefits everyone.

To bring the season to life, the Chamber will host a variety of activities, including the promotion of the TennCommUNITY initiative, designed to make shopping and supporting local fun and rewarding.

New Microchip Scanning Stations in Wilson County

Written by Lebanon Wilson Chamber Marketing on . Posted in Chamber Blog, Mayors Blog.

 Lebanon, TN (10/03/2025) – Wilson County Animal Control (WCAC), in partnership with the Wilson County Emergency Management Agency (WEMA), has installed free-to-use, 24/7 pet microchip scanning stations in four locations across the county. 

The self-service scanners will be available in the next few days. They will be located in the parking lots of the following WEMA fire stations: 

  • Station 2 – Watertown – 160 South Statesville Ave, Watertown 
  • Station 4 – Lakeview – 6171 Saundersville RD, Mt. Juliet 
  • Station 5 – Gladeville – 8814 Stewarts Ferry Pike, Mt. Juliet 
  • Station 9 – Lebanon – 40 Rutledge Lane, Lebanon 

Each station includes signage with clear instructions for scanning a found pet’s microchip. These tools will help community members reunite lost pets with their families while preventing dogs from going into animal shelters, which are often full. 

“These scanners will help improve the reunification process of lost pets and their families. We know that pets belong with their people and not in kennels, so these scanners will provide a useful tool to help make that happen. We truly appreciate Wilson County Animal Control and WEMA for making this possible,” said Randall Hutto, Wilson County Mayor. 

WCAC asks that you please not pick up a stray dog and place it in your vehicle/home. This can become dangerous, as stray dogs can be unpredictable. Wilson County’s Animal Shelter is currently full. Families looking to adopt a pet are welcome to stop by and meet the dogs that are up for adoption. Wilson County Animal Control is located at 378 Dump Road, Lebanon, TN 37087 and is open Mondays-Fridays from 7:00am-3:00pm. Wilson County Animal Control can be reached at 615-444-9775 for more information.
