A MESSAGE FROM THE CHAMBER PRESIDENT
During these changing and challenging times, the Buffalo Grove Area Chamber of Commerce is
committed to helping our members, all Buffalo Grove businesses and the Village at large. In 2010, the Chamber continued its community efforts by collecting food during Buffalo Grove Days, by awarding Ronald J. Jonas scholarships and hosting, along with Lake County Chairman David Stolman, an Employment/Survival Resources Fair.
The BGACC is all about meeting and knowing people. From our 10 business luncheons, to our business before and after hours, to our Lunch & Learn Seminars, the Chamber is about promoting your business. In February 2011, the Chamber introduced our new website. This keeps the Chamber current with the state of the art in business communications by providing easy access to Buffalo Grove business information both for the members and people wanting to locate our members in person and on the Internet. In 2010, we held events to assist members in utilizing the premier business e-networking site: Linked-In. We have more such events planned and we will initiate more programs about social networking for businesses.
We encourage all Buffalo Grove businesses to join the Buffalo Grove Area Chamber of Commerce. The chamber gives you the opportunity to promote your business at all Chamber events, many of which extend beyond the corporate limits of the village and to the community at large.
But, we also care and give back to the community. The Chamber continues to
award college scholarships under the banner of the Ronald J. Jonas Scholarship Fund and supervised by our Education Committee. The Chamber has supplied, through the tireless efforts of our Community Outreach Committee, the local food pantries by sponsoring a variety of efforts including the collection of food during the Buffalo Grove Days parade. And the Chamber will continue its efforts to assist our community. Later this year the Chamber will sponsor the first annual Heart of Buffalo Grove Awards - recognizing seven categories of volunteers in the Community.
The Chamber encourages our residents to shop locally! It is YOU that help our businesses and service providers thrive in the community through your consistent support. Shopping locally keeps sales tax dollars within the community and helps the environment by keeping gas consumption down.
This Community guide provides you with a vast amount of information on the community—village and township numbers, schools, hospitals, churches & synagogues, events, local businesses and much more. We hope that you will find it a useful reference.
