“A job well done,” says Dax, the Adirondack Phantoms mascot, to Laura Conway, membership campaign chair, for a spectacular 2012 ARCC membership drive.<\/em>\n<\/div>\n

The Adirondack Regional Chamber of Commerce (ARCC) just completed its 2012 Membership Campaign with a goal of 50 new members and is thrilled to announce that it has shattered that mark and gained 105 new members. Total membership in the Chamber is now over 1100 businesses.
\nThe ARCC is the voice of business in our region and provides exceptional value to its members. This is the message that the Chamber and their volunteers delivered to prospective members during this campaign. This exceptional value of membership resonates on all levels of business, whether a start-up company or a business that has been successful for years. The businesses that joined the Chamber ranged from sole proprietors to the some of the largest companies in the region.<\/p>\n

“When I was asked to lead a membership team for the drive, as a member of the Board of Directors it was easy for me to say yes,” stated Tom Albrecht from Hilltop Construction, who served as a team captain for the campaign. “I’ve always wished I had joined the chamber when I was growing my business years ago; the value is far and wide and I would have benefitted from being a member. Now was my time to share those thoughts with others.”<\/p>\n

Many individuals made this effort a success, led by both John Marcantonio, membership manager for the ARCC and Laura Conway of Cool Insuring Agency. Team captains were Tim Jansen of Well-Dun Air and Water Systems and Tom Albrecht of Hilltop Construction. Their teams were made up of over 45 volunteers of current ARCC members in addition to Chamber board members who not only believed in the mission of the Chamber, but volunteered their time to grow the membership.<\/p>\n

“We live in such a diverse business community”, commented Laura Conway from Cool Insuring Agency and membership campaign chairperson. “Having the ARCC as the collective voice for all members is integral to business success. The programs and benefits provided to every type of business allow individuals with extensive business experience to be a vital resource to newer businesses in the region”.<\/p>\n

“The strength of the ARCC is, very simply, its membership,” noted Peter Aust, President & CEO of the Chamber. “Through the dedication of these member volunteers who committed their time and talent to build the membership of the organization, the ARCC is now a much stronger organization that will continue to be the voice of business in our community and provide valuable resources that will ensure that our members grow and prosper.”<\/p>\n

The Chamber is very appreciative of every volunteer who worked on this month-long effort as well as the sponsors that provided incentives to the volunteers – especially Adirondack Technical Solutions who contributed the grand prize award. A campaign wrap-up event was held to celebrate the success of the campaign at the Next Door Pub on October 11th. The Adirondack Regional Chamber of Commerce (ARCC) is a not-for-profit, member-based business organization. The Chamber is a vigorous advocate for the economic success of its 1,000+ member businesses, representing more than 23,000 people, predominantly in Warren, Washington and Northern Saratoga Counties in New York State. ARCC is dedicated to creating economic opportunity and enhancing the quality of life throughout the Adirondack Region. www.adirondackchamber.org.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
