Hello and happy May from the Greater Newburyport Chamber of Commerce and Industry. I had the opportunity to assist some visitors this morning from Kentucky. They had stopped by to get a map and a few breakfast choices! They are on a whirl wind tour of the East Coast and said that Newburyport was one of their most favorite gems so far on their journey! They are absolutely right of course – Newburyport and our greater region is indeed a gem!
The weather is looking terrific for this weekend and there is lot to do out there…If you are a fan of history, chocolate and the great outdoor here are a few highlights for you!
May 21 – Preservation Week Tour and Reception sponsored by the Newburyport Preservation Trust

As always there are so many options for those that may want to shop, dine, stroll, bike and explore. For a complete list of chamber members go to http://www.newburyportchamber.org/member_directory.shtml
We offer a weekly Member2Member email program in which chamber members can directly communicate via email with other chamber members. These very popular Member2Member emails can be shared with anyone. Often times the information is a banking service offer, a new restaurant menu or announcement of a special event. So here is a sample of this week’s offerings.
