Member Milestone Celebration- Thursday @ Finger Lakes
Sausage & Beer
The Geneva Area Chamber of Commerce has announced that it will be co-hosting its next Member Milestone Celebration on Thursday, December 14, 2017. The event will include an Open House and Ribbon Cutting Ceremony to honor the official Grand Re-Opening of Finger Lakes Sausage & Beer, located on Linden Street in downtown Geneva.
Originally opened in 2016, Finger Lakes Sausage & Beer was recently purchased by Mike Hofhine and Delane Lenker, who also own Rockin Coffee Beans, a food and coffee stand located at the Waterloo Premium Outlets. Since purchasing the Geneva restaurant, the new owners have made a number of changes, including the creation of an updated menu for diners to enjoy. In addition, they've also expanded their offerings to include bookings for holiday parties, where they can seat up to 40 guests.
The Grand Re-Opening event will take place from 3-6:00 p.m., and will feature samples and specials from their new menu, tours of the establishment, and will provide guests the opportunity to meet the new owners. This event will also include an official photo op with Chamber representatives at 4:00 p.m., which attendees are encouraged to participate in. There is no charge to attend, and the public is welcome.
Milestone Celebrations are a key benefit of Chamber membership, and provide awareness and exposure for member businesses by promoting the important components of who they are and what they do, such as their people, property, products and services. Examples of other Milestone Celebrations can include Anniversary Celebrations, Grand Openings, or Relocation-based Open Houses.
