We ushered in the new year spending time with family and friends and now we are gearing up for our 2013 membership campaign. The partnership with the GLVCC presents us with a unique opportunity this year for all of our members. They can explore the many aspects The Chamber has to offer for the small- to medium-sized businesses located in the Emmaus area.  Look for an Emmaus Main Street Partner board member who will be visiting your business in the near future.

The winter’s farmers market is in full swing, promoting fresh, organic produce grown in the Lehigh Valley and sold by Lehigh Valley farmers.  They are open every other Sunday for your enjoyment.

We are celebrating several February holidays in Emmaus this month.  As most people know Groundhog Day is followed up by Fastnacht Day on February 12, a German tradition, where families removed lard and other fats from their homes before the start of Lent, and utilize those fats to make fastnachts.  Enjoy Valentine’s Day in Emmaus by visiting and enjoying the small town atmosphere, our restaurants and our cozy shops to round off the month of February.
