President's MessageJudy Manzo
 

Last month I invited the Board of Directors to jot down a New Years' resolution

for their business. If that didn't inspire a comment, then how about a goal

or "dream" for their business? If still nothing - then how can the Chamber be

more effective in helping us all to "do better."

I was delighted to receive eighteen responses with comments covering all of the above topics.  We will discuss or brainstorm these ideas in the months ahead.

For those not at the board meeting or luncheon you are encouraged to use our new anonymous survey created by Chamber member Cindy Hale, to share your thoughts and ideas. Members Survey We WANT to hear from you as well as businesses who are not members: Non-Members Survey so we can be represent you better than ever!                                                                                        .............(read more)

Executive Director's message

Why join the chamber?  What does the Chamber do?  How can it help my business?  I do not see any benefit in joining.  Everyone can find an excuse NOT to join, but on January 19 at the luncheon to introduce our new president, Judy Manzo, the room was filled with people who overwhelmingly think the Chamber is doing a great job and they were there to support Judy as she leads the Chamber for the next two years. 
Many of you filled out a survey and the one question that many of you responded to is that you have joined for the networking opportunites that the Chamber provides. We work 365 days a year to promote Chamber businesses and we hope that you will each invite a non-member to our next event - the more active you are in the Chamber the more contacts you will make!!
Hope to see you soon,

                               Cathy Alexander 
Executive Director
