A Word from the Director:

First off, we want to thank you for all your kind words of encouragement and for all the help we have received with our move! We couldn't do it without you! We want to do a special shout-out to Birch Bay Realty's, Ron Kulman and James Danger who helped us last Friday with all the heavy lifting. Also, thank you Deb Hiller who dropped everything and helped us with a few trunk loads of things Friday as well.

I also want to give a special thank you to our Board of Directors: Derek Jones; JoEll Abbott; Dianne Marrs-Smith; Linda Galle'-Parent; Doralee Booth; Jake Gobeille, Molly Ernst & Dan McEvoy who have all been so helpful, responsive, and supportive during this difficult time. This is the kind of Board that organizations like The Birch Bay Chamber of Commerce dream of!

We are also announcing that we are hiring a temporary part-time Visitor Center Coordinator. More information about that is below and on our website. In the meantime, we are asking for volunteers to help us keep the Visitor Center open on weekends. If you have time to volunteer, click HERE to signup.

Some important dates to note:
  • Sunday, May 8th, 2022 - Due to unforeseen circumstances we will have to close on Sunday, May 8th at our current location due to staffing.
  • The Visitor Center will be closed Monday, May 9th through Thursday, May 12th while we prepare to open our new space at 4819 Alderson Road, Unit 103. As always, we will be available via email during these days.
