Seeking ATHENA Award nominations

Who do you know among those in our community who exemplify the ATHENA Leadership Model? The Model focuses on the personal traits of strong and successful leaders. It captures the spirit and collaborative leadership style often exemplified in women leaders, while also recognizing the importance of traits such as courageous acts and fierce advocacy in the pursuit of excellence.

Plan now for Small Business Saturday

November brings Small Business Saturday on November 26th – an opportunity to show support for local businesses. Thinking local first keeps resources within the Hudson Valley, helping small businesses thrive. Find something unique while also supporting your community, whether it is a vinyl record from Darkside Records or some wonderful holiday décor from Adams Fairacre Farms (shameless plug), now is a great time to shop and Think Local First.
