Member Benefits

People like to do business with people they know!  The Chamber offers an opportunity for you to meet and mix socially with fellow members utilizing business networking.  General membership meetings offer a flavor for community by rotating among our local member’s restaurants.  Our meetings allow for networking, and feature events with speakers and subject matter important to business professionals.

Your community connection!  Our members are listed in the Guide Phone Book, on the Internet, and in the “Getting to Know Brewster/Patterson” publication, allowing for easy access for anyone looking for you and your type of business.  The business office acts as an information center and will refer Chamber members to consumers and visitors along with distribution of maps and literature provided by our members.  Our full-color monthly newsletter also provides an opportunity to profile our members and publish their advertisements.

On the move!  The Chamber is always working for you!  Special events and programs include ribbon-cutting ceremonies, our annual Giant Networking Raffle, and local job fairs.  Scholarships are awarded to local students from Brewster High School and Northern Westchester BOCES each year.  And instituted by the Chamber with the Putnam County Sheriff’s Department, the Merchant Alert Program keeps businesses aware of unethical business practices and criminal acts that are costly to the business community.

There’s strength in numbers!  An important benefit of membership is the opportunity to work together with other professional business people towards improving our overall business community while increasing your business’s credibility and visibility.
