 “Think of today’s economic crisis as a glorious opportunity to shed old habits and activities while effecting positive change and building new strengths that will foster a strong, prosperous future.”  OpXGroup quote, American Chamber Commerce Executive (ACCE) Chamber Executive Magazine Spring 2009 issue

Explore ways for the Chambers of Commerce in Greene County to creatively align in order to more proactively support the Regional business community. In a robust way this will establish strategic alliances to support the rural landscape by creating an economic climate that enhances the viability of working lands and conserves natural lands.  This will help existing places thrive by taking care of assets and investments such as downtowns, Main Streets, existing infrastructure, and places that the Community values,  and create great new places by building vibrant, enduring neighborhoods and communities that people, especially young people, don’t want to leave.
