Happy Monday and Welcome to August!
If you're interested in the Batavia Women in Business's upcoming Progressive Luncheon, you have until Wednesday to register. This is a fantastic opportunity to share information about your business, upcoming events, and much more with members of 17 different chambers of commerce!
We also have five - yes five - ribbon cuttings scheduled during the next two months, with at least two more in the works. You are encouraged to join us to welcome these businesses, meet the owners and get to know them. Scroll down for more information and add these dates to your calendars. The first one is this Friday.
2022 Donna Dallesasse Award - Nominations Needed!
The Batavia Chamber of Commerce is honored to award one outstanding Chamber member with the Donna Dallesasse Award each year at Harvest Celebration. The Donna Dallesasse Award is given annually to recognize an individual Chamber member in good standing for outstanding commitment and dedication to the Chamber’s mission, vision, and values. Like Donna, this person exhibits great love for our community and the Chamber.
Potential awardees will be nominated by Chamber members in good standing. Nominations can be mailed to the Chamber office, or emailed to margaret@bataviachamber.org by Monday, Aug. 15, stating the reasons why the individual being nominated is worthy of this honor. The nominations will be recommended to the Board by the Nominations Committee, with final determination by Board vote. Members of the Chamber’s Board of Directors and Nominations Committee are not eligible. A list of previous winners are available on our website.
Mayor's Weekly Update
For those of you who listen to Batavia Mayor Schielke's weekly address, you can listen to his address recorded on Friday, July 29 here.
We continually update our home page, bataviachamber.org when new resources and information comes out. Also, check our calendar for new events from us and the community. Make certain you check the calendars regularly!
As always, we are now, and will be in the future, here for you.
Most sincerely,
Margaret, Patti and Shirley

The Batavia Chamber of Commerce is excited to announce that the July Ambassador of the Month is Laura Matter! As one of our valued ambassadors, she represents us at ribbon cuttings, events and makes phone calls on our behalf to our members.
Laura is a credentialed reading specialist. Her business, Reading Matters, provides professional tutoring services for emerging or struggling readers and English language learners. As an educator, she has taught in the Midwest, in California, and traveled to South Africa where she helped to begin an after-school reading program for rural children. She is happy to be back in her hometown of Batavia, teaching local children in person while expanding her reading intervention services online – serving children all over the world. Thank you, Laura, as an Ambassador, your continual effort is appreciated and highly valued by the Board of Directors, Chamber staff and membership!
