The Greater Manlius 2014 membership drive is underway and we welcome you to join the Chamber! We offer our members many opportunities to promote their business’s growth and welfare within the local community.

SOHO SMALL BUSINESS SHOW

The SOHO Small Business Show takes place Thursday, May 1, 9:00 am – 6:00 pm, including 4:30 pm to 6:00 pm business after hours, cash bar, free food, and music. For details visit the SOHO website at http://www.sohosyracuse.com/.

The Chamber is purchasing a "Chamber Table" at SOHO this year. With our purchase of a table, four Chamber businesses can also have their own table at $275 each (the regular cost of a table at SOHO is $595!). Your table would be a 6’ skirted table, with free internet service, and electricity upon request for an additional $70.

Volunteers are needed to attend to the Chamber table throughout the day. Please contact the Chamber Office if you are able and willing to help us out. Anytime you can spare would be great!

We have free attendance tickets for SOHO in the Chamber Office, just stop in or call and we’ll mail them out to you.

This is a great opportunity for members to socialize and network. Liverpool, Baldwinsville and Cicero participated in 2013 and had very positive results. Please contact the Chamber Office as soon as possible if you are interested in purchasing a table at greatermanlius@windstream.net or 637-4760. There are only THREE remaining tables available!

RELAY FOR LIFE

Relay for Life takes place on Saturday, May 31 from 10:00 am – 10:00 pm at the Fayetteville Manlius High School. Relay For Life events include communities across the globe who come together to honor cancer survivors, remember loved ones lost, and fight back against a disease that has already taken too much. This event has not taken place in the FM area in the last 10 yrs. Thank you to the students, teachers and administrators at FM High School for bringing it back this year!

Relay For Life teams take turns walking or running around a track at a FM high school. This event is 12 hours long, and because cancer never sleeps, each team is asked to have at least one participant on the track at all times. Individuals can also sign up to walk. The cost is $10 per person.

There will be bands, food, carnival events and radio station Hot 107.9 to help keep you moving! Please see the website at http://relayforlife.org/fayettevillemanliusny for much more information and to register. THANK YOU!
