Top 7 Reasons to Join the Chamber
(by Al Budde)

The Chamber has been very busy this year, with an updated website and a more visible presence in the community through music and festivals. There is strength in numbers and the Chamber is growing every year. Be a part of it!

ADVERTISING – Members have an opportunity to save 50% OFF the cost of their advertising through I Love NY. Contact Angela Sturgis, Advertising Coordinator, for more information.

WEBSITE – logon to www.salemnychamber.com to see the new chamber website. We have featured businesses, changed quarterly, plus a full membership list by name and business category, news, information, and more.

MEMBERSHIP – we have completely overhauled our membership directory to keep track of businesses and enable e-mail contact throughout the list. The list provides Members with a venue for making timely announcements about their business.

SUMMER SOUNDS OF SALEM- is turning the weekly Farmer’s Market at the gazebo into a weekly party, attracting area musicians to perform as people peruse the produce. This is largely paid for by business donations, and marketed and run through the Chamber.

SIGNS – new signs for better communication between our businesses and civic organizations and visitors and tourists include banners in the village, the new Salem Sign, and the Lakes-to-Locks sign and bulletin board.

COMMUNITY – your Chamber sponsors a number of community events, including our second annual HarvestFest, a holiday parade, and a number of area beautification projects. We also coordinated with the Cambridge and Greenwich Chamber s and the Adirondack Regional Chamber to pursue tri-town economic development.

CHARITY – one of the most satisfying things the Chamber does is provide charitable contributions to people and organizations in need. This year we raised $1,400 for the Crisis Fund through a silent auction held during HarvestFest!
