Your Chamber works to improve the the economic viability of all members of the North Fork Chamber of Commerce, not only through the above effort toward economic development, but also in promoting activities of ALL organizations and institutions that provide the community with educational, cultural, civic, recreational and community programs and projects.  Under new leadership your Chamber is growing and thriving.  But it is not a government agency.  Its main method of funding is membership dues.  With a staff of only a few people, there is too much work to be don b them alone.  Your Chamber needs your support, both financially, through your membership dues, and by volunteering your time and serving on a committee or providing your expertise in an area of vital need.  Join, renew and serve.  Call (631) 765-3161 today for more information!
