HUDSON VALLEY HOT-AIR BALLOON FESTIVAL

For an annual rite of summer in the Hudson Valley, look skyward in July and see tons of hot air balloons dotting the sky over the region. The evening and morning mass launches are not to be missed.

THINK LOCAL FIRST BUSINESS & HOSPITALITY  EXPO

Some of the best connections come from businesses helping other businesses, and each fall the Chamber is glad to bring the cream of the Hudson Valley B2B crop together under one roof for the Business Expo.

Think Local First!

Remember, when you shop, when you dine, and even when you shop online: Think Local First!

Then remember to think about ways to go even further.

Give local first
Think green always
Think global next
