Last Tuesday I got the chance to visit my neighbors at the Saline Chamber of Commerce meeting. I had a great time meeting new people and getting to know some of the local businesses. Most of the attendees already knew each other, and it seemed beneficial for everyone. The first presentation was about Cleary University, and the discount programs offered for employers to have employees finishing up their degrees. I think it is smart for these businesses to work together, because schooling is becoming too expensive for employers to fund.
The next presentation was from the Rentchler Farm Museum. She talked briefly about the great summer programs offered, and how the farm does a lot for the children of the community. I think it is easy for people to get wrapped up in the big business world, but it is important to look at what is in our own community. It is good to continue to listen to community discussions like this so that we can remember what our clients are looking for. Most of our non profits have a similar mindset that these historical establishments do.
