| Apr 8 Young Entrepreneurs Academy! Investor Panel Event |
The Young Entrepreneurs Academy (YEA!) for middle and high school students was launched in the Rhinebeck School District in November 2012. This program focuses on a broad definition of entrepreneurship – the transformation of an idea into an enterprise that creates value. YEA! teaches students not only the importance and purpose of social and business entrepreneurship, but also the process by which one establishes a business enterprise or social movement. YEA! offers students the opportunity to learn these principles through a yearlong project-based, hands-on entrepreneurial education. Students are taught to write a business or social action plan, make a pitch to potential investors/ supporters, obtain funding, and launch their company/movement.
At the Investor Panel, students present their business plans before a panel of local distinguished business leaders, in order to compete for funding for their enterprises. The YEA! class of 2013 will explain their businesses, created by local middle and high school students, inspired and instructed by local business leaders. The event is free and open to the public, and is a great way to learn about getting involved in the YEA! Class of 2014-15. |

| May 21 Ribbon Cutting for Country Living Magazine's House of the Year! |
Join us for this very special reveal!
Top Magazine Chooses Hudson Valley Getaway Builder for 2014 House of the Year
Catskill Farms Builds Showcase Home for Country Living Magazine, Featured in Country Living Fair in Rhinebeck, NY
Eldred, NY (April 3, 2014) – Hudson Valley designer, builder, and realtor of traditional homes in the Catskill Mountains, Charles Petersheim, has been selected by Country Living Magazine to build its 2014 House of the Year. The 1,500 square-foot, 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom house, located in Rhinebeck, will be showcased during the annual Country Living Fair this June. The magazine will also publish a 10-page spread of the home in its September issue, featuring a profile on Petersheim and Catskill Farms.
For the last 15 years, Country Living has been remodeling and building homes all over the country to promote as their House of the Year. The annual project consists of Country Living’s design team and a local designer/builder who work together to build a home that showcases the latest design trends. After the home is completed, a robust feature of the process is published in the magazine for its 11 million readers.
“This feature is a great progression of our brand’s national coverage,” said Petershiem. “It works because our design approach and philosophy mirrors that of the magazine’s. It’s rare that Country Living features the builder as well as the home, so we’re very grateful to be a part of this project.”
It is also the first time the house will be a part of the Country Living Fair, where hundreds and thousands of people will be able to tour the house.
“It’s a real compliment for us and a testament to our passion for country homes,” added Petersheim.
Catskill Farms has also been featured in The New York Times, USA Today, New York Post, and was chosen by the DIY Network to build its 2010 Blog Cabin.
The home, which has already been purchased, is a regionally-inspired farmhouse with more than 1,000 square feet of porches and covered decks. Much like the getaway homes that Petersheim’s company designs and builds in its other markets, this house mirrors the same intricacies and attention-to-detail that has become the signature of Catskill Farms. With wide-plank floors, salvaged plank ceilings, open floor plans, and security system with all the newest amenities, the house has an ‘old-home feel’ with modern luxuries and conveniences.
Country Living is a guide to creating the ultimate in country style. Each issue offers inspirational ideas on: Decorating & Remodeling, Antiques & Collecting, Gardening & Landscaping, Entertaining & Travel.

| Jul 15 Lunch & Learn: Is Your Artwork Working? |
Andrea Rhodes at Gig Marketing will be hosting a brown bag lunch discussion, "Is Your Artwork Working?" Join us for some speed marketing makeovers - a spirited, insightful roundtable taking a look at your own real life examples. Let's peek at your branding materials and give them a quick review...your logo, promotional materials, flier, print ad, your website...please bring anything you'd like to share. We'll discuss what's working and what might need a refresh. In a collaborative, positive light, think of it as a quick consultation and food for thought. If you prefer, you can always bring an example of another brand you like (or think needs improvement) and we can talk general assessments - it's up to you.
Andrea is a veteran communications specialist having spent many years in New York's advertising industry working with world class brands. Notable Hudson Valley/regional clients include All Sport Health & Fitness in Fishkill, Electronic Environments in Marlborough, MA and Simplicity Boutique in Poughkeepsie, to name just a few. She is also the co-founder and producing director at Tangent Theatre Company. Gig Marketing (which stands for Get it Going!) and Tangent are based in Tivoli.

The Rhinebeck Area Chamber of Commerce is delighted to announce that its annual fundraising event, Cocktails at Sunset, will be held Thursday, October 16, 2014 from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m. at The Belvedere Mansion. We have a great committee working together to make this the best year yet! We are excited to announce our entertainment will the The Little Creek Band!
Cocktails at Sunset is the premier fundraiser for the Chamber and our theme,
Lighting Up Rhinebeck, is meant to provide funds that will be used not only for the traditional Village tree lighting but for other ongoing projects and Chamber programs that will draw business to our area. The success of this event is credited largely to our sponsors, who lend us their names and financial support. Our ability to continue to fund the tree lighting and additional projects depends on the support and contributions of our Chamber members.
We're counting on your support and are happy to answer any questions you
may have. Thank you in advance for your willingness to support the efforts of the Rhinebeck Area Chamber of Commerce and make a difference in our community.

| Feb 11 Tourism & How It Affects Your Business |
Tourism is thriving in Dutchess County! How can you get in on the action? How does this help your business? Please join us for a discussion with Dutchess Tourism, Inc. to get the answers and you can share your questions or ideas.
Fodor's Travel 4th annual Fodor's Go List of the top 25 places to visit next year names the Hudson Valley and the Catskills as "can't miss" places to visit! We know this will inspire many travelers to plan their 2015 vacation to our destination that's an "alternative to New York City, filled with world-class cuisine, outdoor adventures, and hipster charm." They name Rhinebeck, Dia: Beacon, the Walkway Over the Hudson, and the FDR Presidential Home, Library & Museum as must-see spots!

Building relationships and gaining trust are at the heart of doing business; remembering your clients' names and faces is a gateway to success. In this workshop, you will learn techniques to master people's names from the get-go. You will also become more self-reliant by learning how to commit speeches, scripts, lists, and other sequential information to memory. These memory methods will get you to think faster on your feet, enhance your creativity, and make you more socially connected. Click here to register today! All registered participants receive an autographed copy of How Could I Forget You! A Creative Way to Remember Names and Faces.
A practitioner of trained-memory methods since his mid-teens, Brent has helped countless students and professionals improve their powers of recall. Brent credits these methods with enabling him to learn multiple languages and hold archivist positions at The Getty Center and Harvard University early in his career. Since 2004, he has led memory workshops in San Francisco at the Commonwealth Club, California Academy of Sciences, and City College, as well as Adult Education Centers in Boston, Brookline, and Cambridge, Mass. Brent currently lives in the metropolitan New York area and is available for memory coaching for individuals and groups.

| Sep 10 Network After Work! September 10, 2015 |
Join us in the great venue of The Shelter for an evening of networking with your fellow Chamber members!
We are excited to welcome Dress for Success and ask attendees to bring gently worn women's clothing that would be appropriate for a professional interview or work in a professional environment.
What would you wear to a job interview? That is exactly the type of clothing they are looking for to distribute to their clients. Your fabulous suits and other professional apparel could furnish another woman with the confidence to enter or return to the workplace, make a great first impression and land a job that could change her life.
Additionally, many of the clients go directly from the center to an interview, so please ensure that all items donated are freshly dry-cleaned / laundered and ironed, not more than 5 years old, and suitable for wearing to job interviews. Thanks!

| Sep 21 NDH Thrift Shop Celebrates New Space with Ribbon Cutting |
To celebrate a larger and renovated new location, a special grand opening event will be held for Sweet Repeats Thrift Shop at 5 p.m. Monday, Sept. 21 at 97 Montgomery St.
Hosted by the Rhinebeck and Red Hook Area Chambers of Commerce with Northern Dutchess Hospital, the event will feature a ribbon cutting, refreshments and “buy 2, get 1 free” discounts storewide, as well as extended shop hours until 7 p.m. The thrift shop is run by the hospital’s volunteer-based auxiliary and all proceeds benefit the hospital, which is a nonprofit.
Thanks to many upgrades, Sweet Repeats now boasts hardwood floors and slat walls where accessories such as scarves, hats and purses as well as household goods are neatly displayed. Freshly painted shelves hold a wide collection of kitchenware and modern clothing racks allow for better browsing of women’s, men’s and children’s clothing. For shoppers’ convenience, two dressing rooms and a handicap entrance were added and credit cards are now accepted. A designated nearby parking lot is under construction.
The ribbon cutting is open to the public. For information about volunteering or donating items, the thrift shop can be reached at 845-876-4255. Normal hours are: 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Saturday. For hospital information, visit www.healthquest.org/ndh
