The Dutchess County Regional Chamber of Commerce will support the Year of the Veteran in the county with promotional opportunities for veteran-owned businesses added to its services for chamber members.
Chamber officials said the organization will draw special attention to businesses of member veterans in its print and online directories and by highlighting a Veteran-Owned Business Member of the Month in its monthly Bottom Line newsletter.
“We would like to thank and celebrate our local veterans, especially those who have taken their support of this country to the next level and opened a business,” said Frank Castella Jr., president and CEO of the Dutchess County Regional Chamber.
