Fill your Fall with Chamber events and connect with your community

With the holidays around the corner, November is a great time to show your support for your community and local businesses. With unique shops and restaurants throughout the region, this would be a great opportunity to shop the Hudson Valley! November offers the opportunity to learn more about how the Chamber can help your business. On November 9th at the Hampton Inn & Suites by Hilton in Poughkeepsie we will be hosting a Master Your Membership session. This is a great way to learn more about how the Chamber operates as well as what the Chamber can do for you. Whether a new member or an existing member, this is a great way to learn about taking advantage of all of your membership benefits, and there are many!

This month’s Contact Breakfast, taking place at The Poughkeepsie Grand Hotel on Wednesday, November 15th, will feature a keynote presentation from Dr. Peter Jordan, President of Dutchess Community College.
