Greetings Members,
With just two months left in my term as your Chairman, May marks another exciting month at the Lancaster Chamber of Commerce. As we work to plan the 2016-17 year ahead, the Chamber's board of directors, committees and staff are working hard to create new business opportunities and value for you!
In case you missed it, the Chamber had an eventful April:
- Vice Mayor Marvin Crist and City Manager Mark Bozigian presented the annual "State of the City" at our monthly Luncheon.
- The Chamber celebrated milestones with both new and existing members, including the grand opening of the Picture Perfect portrait studio, the two-year anniversary mixer with Americas United Bank and the reopening of the expanded Olives Mediterranean Café!
- The Lancaster Chamber's Young Entrepreneurs Academy (YEA) held their second annual Investor's Panel, where middle and high school participants vied for thousands of dollars in seed money for their business ventures. Congratulation to all of the YEA students for their hard work and especially to Sa'eed Dasher and his Ties for Lil Guys, which was awarded $1,875 and a chance to give his pitch at the YEA regional competition this month in New York.
As we move into May, I encourage all of our members to take advantage of one of the many benefits that come with a Lancaster Chamber of Commerce Membership, including (but not limited to):
- Set up your FREE member page on the chamber website, lancasterchamber.org. Even if you're not tech savvy, our chamber services team can take your logo, photos and business info and build the page for you. It doesn't get much easier or cheaper to have a webpage than this!
- Book your spot on the Minding Your Business radio show with hosts Chris Spicher and Aaron Goldstein. Taped weekly, this is your opportunity share your business via radio and webcast.
There is real value in your Lancaster Chamber of Commerce membership. Let us be a part of your business success!
