Best Wishes for a Happy New Year!
|
|
As we close the door to another year, we look forward to the possibilities a new one can offer. It is a privilege to live and work in such a beautiful part of the world and to be part of this wonderful and vibrant community. There is so much we can accomplish by working together and I look forward to the opportunities that allow that to happen. I am particularly excited to welcome the new energy and diversity to our Chamber Board of Directors and Board of Advisors. This
Chamber belongs to you. It is only as strong as its membership. As we welcome in the New Year, we also welcome your ideas and suggestions. Your voice matters.
With
Maine's Bicentennial
Celebration just ahead, we are excited to be an integral part of promoting all special events and activities that have been scheduled to celebrate 200 years of Maine Statehood! Last year the our Visitor's Center welcomed over 14,000 visitors, this year we anticipate that number to grow significantly. If you, your business or organization have something special going on this year, please let the Chamber know so we can help you spread the word.
On behalf of everyone at the Chamber, we wish you and yours a truly happy and prosperous New Year!
The Chamber offices will be closing early on
New Years Eve
.
We will re-open again on Thursday 2nd Jan. We look forward to seeing you then!
