 Brochures
Please send your brochures, flyers, coupons etc. for the Information rack at the Chamber Office. We want to fill it with useful current member info. Brochures about 3 ˝ W x 8 ˝ H work the best because they stand up well in the rack and are easy to see.

President's MessageJudy Manzo                                                        
 

I can't believe it's 2011 already and that

I said YES to becoming your new President!

I want to thank Chris Mulhern for his inspiring leadership these past two years and I will strive to keep the momentum  going in a positive direction.

Clearly my expertise and passion lie in the "Shop Local" movement and supporting community businesses. 

We have  tremendous membership support across all sorts of businesses and I plan to showcase this diversity and develop more opportunities for business to business relationships.

Let's begin the new year with high hopes and enthusiasm that our businesses can and will be better.  Through collaboration and brain-storming we may come up with some amazing ideas to enhance your business that you alone might never consider!

                                                                            Judy Manzo - Book Ends

Executive Director's message

We hope you had a great holiday season!

We look forward to the coming year  as we welcome new members - FastSigns of Woburn and Maureen's Services to the Winchester  Chamber.

Special thanks John Doherty for his service on the Chamber Board. Your contributions of time and talent were greatly appreciated.

Finally, a warm welcome to our new Chamber President and owner of Book Ends, Judy Manzo. All members are invited to our first Chamber meeting of the year on Wednesday Jan 5 at 8AM at the Chamber Office to meet Judy and hear of the exciting plans now underway at the Chamber. See you there.
