The third Wednesday in October is Support Your Local Chamber of Commerce Day to celebrate the great work happening across the nation by our local Chamber of Commerce organizations. Today we would like to highlight some of our accomplishments this past year, reintroduce you to our staff, and also thank our fellow Chamber of Commerce organizations that we are fortunate to work with regularly across Vermont.
Chamber & Economic Development of the Rutland Region (CEDRR) is celebrating its first year as a merged organization this October and is reflecting on the work that has taken place. Over the course of the past year, CEDRR continued to collaborate with regional partners to help pave the way for growth in our county. CEDRR continues to pursue the goal of ensuring that the Rutland Region is the best place to live, work, play and grow a business. We have done so with clear statements supporting declarations of inclusion and welcoming refugees, as well as recognizing Castleton University’s impact on our communities.
