Chamber on a Roll...

Headline inspired by Park Deli and Villa Rustica? Yep!

As we come to the end of February, we have a ton of news and opportunities... here are few highlights that you will learn more about throughout this e-newsletter... some events are happening later this week!

First, congratulations to Ready Set Smile Pediatric Dentistry! We celebrated their opening with a ribbon cutting last week.

New Chamber website almost ready for launch! Members are asked to attend a low-tech training session on managing membership directory profiles.

Open Door Care Network is holding an info session on vaccination - tomorrow, Wed Feb 25. See rsvp access on their flyer, below.

Save the Date! On March 31 from 5:30 - 7:30pm, we will co-host a networking reception @ Key Bank, in partnership with the Westchester Hispanic Chamber of Commerce and the Greater New York Chamber of Commerce. Registration will be required and we will send an invitation out later this week.

Employers, please take a close look at the offer from Restore Wellness. They created this just for our members and your employees!

As usual, we have a really great roster of offerings from our members and community friends including new employment opportunities! Please feel free to share!

Cheers! Camela Morrissey

Member Opportunity

Special Offer for Chamber Members (and your employees) from Restore Hyper Wellness

If you haven't yet checked out Restore Wellness in the Gateway Shopping Center, please do. They have an amazing menu of wellness services and therapies to revitalize and refresh - and they have a really cool studio. See this special offer for our members and go for it.

Members have Benefits

Our new website is nearing completion and it will have a dynamic membership directory with organization profiles that can be linked to most other components of your online presence. All current member organizations (listed below) have received an e-letter from Camela with more detail.

To make sure your organization's profile is accurate when we launch the website and membership directory in late March, we are hosting two identical training sessions.

The in-person training sessions will be held at US Alliance Financial - Port Chester branch @ 555 Boston Post Road (next to Whole Foods). Please pick one of these identical sessions:

Thursday, March 12 from 5:30 - 6:30pm
Monday, March 16 from 5:30 - 6:30pm

Please email me which session your organization will attend. You will leave the session with an accurate directory profile that is ready for the launch of the new website. You'll also get to see a preview of the new site before it launches!

PS: directory profiles are created for organization membership levels 2 - 6
