TARA MURPHREE
Tara Murphree has spent recent years at the helm of the Blount County-Oneonta Agri-Business Center as its secretary.  With the sale of the Center to the County, Tara will transition to work for the Oneonta Business Association as its volunteer Director of Member Services.  She is no stranger to the OBA.  Tara first became involved when she volunteered her artistic services to paint the "Angels in Oneonta" mural on the Malone property on Railroad Boulevard.  She was elected to the OBA's board in 2018 and has proven herself to be the most reliable, devoted, passionate, and valued volunteer.  In fact, Tara received the OBA's Volunteer of the Year in 2019.   In December 2019, she dutifully served as the Site Manager for the annual Christmas tree display, troubleshooting issues with rain, power, and fallen trees for weeks.  Tara also served as assistant to Bill Hendrickson, chairman of the OBA's "Paint the Town" multi-phased project and created a reproduction of the historical Little Joe's Restaurant sign in the OBA Art Walk. Tara is married to her best friend, Clay Murphree; they have a son named River Jude, who is a student at Oneonta Elementary School.

PATTI MOSS WILLIAMS

Patti Moss Williams

Website, Social Media, & Graphic Design
patti@pmw-communications.com
Patti's work for the OBA began in 2011 when the organization asked her to build its first website, and included a five-year membership with the compensation.  Since 2009, Patti has worked as a freelance graphic designer from her home in Oneonta, leaving a 12-year job at a large church in Mountain Brook and her daily commute.  A graduate of Oneonta High School and Jacksonville State University, Patti previously held positions as a radio announcer, program coordinator, social worker, and social service agency director before finding her passion in graphic design.  She is married to Dwight and is proud mom to Natasia Jackson, and "Mama Patti" to three adorable grandchildren: Westin, Wade, and Ellavee.  Patti is thrilled to be helping with events and activities that promote her hometown.  Her childhood memories include hanging out at Evans Florist (her grandparents' business for 27 years) and the neighboring Neely Theater. Her family lived only three blocks from main street and she developed a fondness for window shopping and hanging with her friends downtown.  "I want my grandchildren to enjoy downtown Oneonta as much as I did growing up."  In her free time, Patti enjoys jazz music and going to concerts, volunteering for the OBA, and, most importantly, spending time with family.
