By the first of the year, plans were well underway to move the tourism agency from Castile to the same office suite as the Chamber of Commerce in the Wyoming County Business Services Center at 6470 Route 20A in Perry.  Following an office rehab to accommodate for the tourism staff, the agency officially moved in April, 2010. All the while, discussions were continuing on joining the two organizations, which were already so closely aligned in mission and services, into one highly efficient and effective agency here to best serve and promote business and community in Wyoming County.  “It’s an exciting time for both the Chamber and TPA,“stated Chamber board chair, Rick Henry. “While we began talk of formally joining the two agencies back in late 2009, both agencies have spent countless hours over the past couple of months working out the details of bringing the two organizations together as one entity.” To that end, on September 1, 2010 a Memorandum of Understanding was signed between the Board of Directors of both organizations formally effectuating the joining of forces.  Moving forward, the tourism functions for Wyoming County will operate under the umbrella of the Chamber of Commerce.  All previous tourism staff have remained on through the transition.  According to Chamber President, Laura Lane, “While titles have altered slightly, the same quality of service and promotion of tourism businesses as well as Wyoming County remains intact.  Operating as one, the Chamber and Tourism will be able to more effectively and efficiently serve the needs of our members and the County.  We encourage the public to stop in to the office.  We have a wealth of tourism information for the general public and assistance to provide Wyoming County businesses.” Brian Fleischman, who had been hired on as the new Director of Tourism in July, 2009 will continue his role in this capacity as it relates to tourism promotion for Wyoming County.  However, through this transition, Fleischman’s role now as Director of Tourism and Marketing will enhance his opportunities to work directly with all member businesses in customizing their marketing and communications needs.  “I want to take this opportunity to remind Wyoming County tourism based entities of the Plan to Prosper program recently established in conjunction with the Wyoming County IDA and Business Center. This unique program provides customizable low interest loans for marketing purposes for tourism based business in the County.” stated Fleischman.  “This whole transition is about collaboration in its truest sense.  Furthermore, we see this as a unique transition in that we took two extremely stable, well-established, already powerful organizations and combined them into one.  Joining agencies with such strong pre-existing capacities can only lead to continued growth and positive impact for Wyoming County,” stated Lorraine Sturm, current Tourism Board Chair.  For more information or to become a member please call 585-237-0230 or visit the Chamber website at http://www.wycochamber.org and the Tourism website at http://www.GoWyomingCountyNY.com 2010-10-14T17:02:58+00:00 http://www.wycochamber.org/index.php/news/summer_2010_newsletter/ http://www.wycochamber.org/index.php/news/summer_2010_newsletter/#When:20:02:52Z Fall_2010_Newsletter.pdf Chamber Newsletters 2010-07-29T20:02:52+00:00 http://www.wycochamber.org/index.php/news/business_maintenance_tele-seminar_series_listen_learn_from_the_comfort_of_y/ http://www.wycochamber.org/index.php/news/business_maintenance_tele-seminar_series_listen_learn_from_the_comfort_of_y/#When:07:09:36Z How many times have you wanted to attend a seminar but can’t get away from the office or shop for various reasons? Whether it be travel time, travel costs, no one to cover for you, or simply too much going on to be out for 3 hours to attend an hour training seminar. Well you can’t stop learning and keeping your business in check just because you can’t get away.  So let us bring the education to you with our new easy, convenient Listen & Learn Business Maintenance Tele-Seminars.  Simply dial in to a special toll-free 800-number and you and all your employees if you’d like, can participate in an hour long tele-seminar. “Our first series of seminars focuses on six business maintenance topics that any type of business should review on an annual basis,” stated Chamber President Laura Lane.  We are addressing topics such as problem solving, communications, customer service, marketing, time management, and coping with stress and change.  We are excited to have partnered with The BEST Center at Genesee Community College to present this first series of tele-seminars.” The hour-long seminars will start on July 30th and run each consecutive Friday through September 3rd.  They run from 8:30am - 9:30am.  Participants can call in from any phone (landline or cell phone).  The fee per session is $20 regardless of how many people listen in on the call.  For example, you could center your weekly staff meetings around the call.  Just dial in and put the phone on speaker phone and your entire staff can take advantage of the session.  Feel free to sign up for one, two, three or all of sessions.  One hour a week for six weeks, is a small investment with a huge return.  Discounts are also available if you register for all six sessions. Not ready to dial in but still want to attend one of the seminars?  Not a problem.  All of the seminars will be offered live at the Chamber office for those that would like to attend in person.  The Chamber is located at 6470 Route 20A in Perry.

The perseverance and commitment of Wyoming County farm families is impressive and an inspiration.  Farm families like the DeGolyer’s of Table Rock Farm, who were presented with the 2010 Pride of Agriculture Good Neighbor Award from Cooperative Extension and Farm Bureau. Table Rock Farm certainly exemplifies what it means to be a good neighbor through actions such as offering neighbors coupons for free corn, personally visiting each neighbor to find out what they have going on for the season so the farm does not spread manure the day of a neighbors family reunion or party, making a personal commitment to their employees and a their dedication to the community.  Agriculture, Members in the News 2010-03-31T16:15:58+00:00 http://www.wycochamber.org/index.php/news/pride_of_wyoming_county_agriculture_dinner_set_for_saturday_march_27th/ http://www.wycochamber.org/index.php/news/pride_of_wyoming_county_agriculture_dinner_set_for_saturday_march_27th/#When:05:05:17Z The date for the 2010 Pride of Wyoming County Agriculture Dinner is set for Saturday, March 27th!  The event will be held at the North Java Fire Hall.  Tickets are on sale now.  Limited seating available so please register early.  Invitations have been mailed and tickets will remain on sale until the 350 available tickets are sold.
