Meet the Staff

Jennie Lee

Executive Director


Office: 803-435-4405

I am a native of Clarendon County, and I am excited to be at the Chamber of Commerce working to support the events that helped me be a successful small business owner here in Manning for over 10 years.  I remember how important the chamber community was to my own business – from hosting a ribbon cutting and business after hours to participating in annual dinners and retreats.  Being involved with the chamber and volunteering with community events resonated with my customers and they chose to shop with me because they knew I cared about Clarendon County just as much as they did. I have been a volunteer with the Clarendon County Chamber of Commerce for many years, and I am now thrilled to be serving the Clarendon County business community full time as Chamber Director.

Jesse Surette

Director of Tourism


Office: 803-435-4405

An alumnus of the University of South Carolina with a Bachelor of Arts in Mass Communications, I have the pleasure of returning home to serve Clarendon County as the Director of Tourism. Being born and raised here, it truly is special to advocate for a place that means so much to me. I strive to showcase all that we have to offer here in Clarendon County so that others can see we are deserving of the title, Destination Clarendon, SC.
