September 15, 2011 (Join your local Chamber of Commerce)

If you are a local business owner in this area, I would have to strongly suggest joining the Chamber of Commerce.  As a member of the board of directors for a non-for-profit, I have the opportunity to attend chamber events on their behalf and I must say that the events are always enjoyable.  The event I attended this evening was sponsored by both the Schenectady County Chamber and the Southern Saratoga Chamber and the event benefitted the local victims of Hurricane Irene.  The Chambers of Commerce are nonprofit organizations, dedicated to acting as a catalyst for economic growth.
Tonight’s event was held at The Edison Club.  The club was an idea conceived in 1903 by employees of the GE Test Department and the finalization of contracts occurred in 1925 when the property was turned over to GE.
