Alabama’s Commissioner of Agriculture John McMillan will be the guest speaker at the Headland Area Chamber of Commerce’s Annual Membership Banquet on Thursday, January 19.


The banquet will be held at Headland United Methodist Church on King Street in Headland. Appetizers and fellowship begins at 5:30pm with a seated dinner served at 6:30. The Byrd Family (ages 14-5) from Newville will provide bluegrass and gospel entertainment during the evening. Tickets are $25 per person or $200 for a table for eight.


 


McMillan was elected as Commissioner of the Alabama Department of Agriculture and Industries in 2010 and re-elected in 2014. He grew up in the rural community of Stockton, Alabama in Baldwin County. After graduating from Baldwin County High School, McMillan attended Rhodes College where he earned a BA in economics.


McMillan has served on the Baldwin County Commission, was twice elected as a State Representative, served as Commissioner of the Alabama Department of Conservation & Natural Resources, and served 14 years on the State Personnel Board.


During his time as the Commissioner of the Alabama Department of Conservation & Natural Resources, McMillan was instrumental in the creation of the Alabama Trust Fund, a state trust to preserve the proceeds from offshore oil and gas leases.


In addition to his public service, McMillan was Executive Vice President of the Alabama Forestry Association for over 20 years. McMillan’s passion for the protection of private property rights was put on display when the Alabama Forestry Association played a pivotal role in the defeat of Amendment 1 in 2003, an attempt at the largest property tax increase in the history of the state.
