Comments from Kim...
Welcome February, and that means Winter Carnival!! I hope you are all either open and FULL of patrons (whether a hotel or merchant) or attending and enjoying the activities yourself.  As for me, I am "smack dab" in the middle of Travel Show season! I have already visited with thousands of people in Montreal, NJ and NYC, sharing the excitement of the Lake George Region.  I am headed to Boston for this weekend and then to Foxborough and Philly. PHEW! So many of you have taken advantage of the brochure co-op program this year that we have had to request the help of volunteers from RSVP! That's GREAT! The amazing "Get-Away Give-Aways" donated by our membership for each show are drawing record numbers of visitors to our booth at each show. WOW! ... Thank you again for your generosity. 

More and more of you are remembering to send us job listings to add to our newsletter, notifying us with coupons and specials and referring businesses you would like to see join our chamber. Keep the information coming~
See... Membership DOES Matter! 

Until Next Time, 
Kim
