Pack the City Council Chambers Tonight!

Mayor Schielke will be proclaiming Saturday, November 26 as Shop Small Saturday in Batavia. We'd love to see the City Council Chambers, 100 N. Island Avenue, packed with small business owners, employees and supporters! The City Council meeting begins at 7:30 p.m.

The holidays are all about giving – and the best gift you can give local businesses is your support. Get out there and Shop Small this Small Business Saturday® on Nov 26 to kick off the season in a meaningful way.

Local money stays local. For every $100 spent at a local business, it is estimated that $68 stays in the community! Support small business and your community. Shop Small. Not sure what to buy for a gift? Give the gift of Chamber Bucks! While they last, our Holiday Bucks promotion is going on. There are approximately 100 businesses who accept Batavia Chamber Bucks!

Batavia United Way Helping Neighbors

Batavia United Way (BUW) has been busy this month! On Sunday, November 6, over 100 volunteers through BUW fanned out across Batavia to rake 24 yards for senior citizens, veterans, and people with physical limitations who would have had difficulty doing it for themselves. Volunteers were happy to help and recipients were grateful for the assistance. Read the entire press release to learn about our new initiatives including Giving Tuesday.
