The Chamber Surprise Patrol Team shows up on the 1st day of the month at two randomly selected member businesses (one in St. Robert and one in Waynesville). The sign will be proudly displayed throughout the month at their business. This is a way for the Chamber to highlight our members and surprise them with a visit. We also include a business from our surrounding area to showcase virtually.
The Waynesville-St. Robert Chamber of Commerce is happy to feature a St. Robert business, a Waynesville Business, and a business from our surrounding area as the Chamber members for the Business Showcase for the month of December.
Jackson Hewitt has been a trusted name in tax services for years, with roots in the community long before the local office opened under Lunceford Enterprises in 2019 and officially welcomed clients in 2021.

They handle everything from simple individual returns to complex filings, including self-employment taxes, and assist with amendments, extensions, and tax planning to maximize deductions, credits, and future financial health. Jackson Hewitt also provides IRS audit help and representation, plus a Free Refund Recheck service to catch missed opportunities. Filing is flexible, with in-person appointments, secure “Drop Off & Go” service, or online self-preparation. Clients may qualify for a No Fee Refund Advance loan, with funds often available the same day on a prepaid card, as well as Assisted Refunds or the Serve® American Express® Prepaid Debit Card. All services are backed by strong guarantees, including the Biggest Refund Guarantee, Lifetime Accuracy Guarantee, and Money Today Guarantee for eligible Refund Advance clients, along with optional identity theft protection.
