COVID-19 Pandemic Information

Hello,

Due to the recent Coronavirus Pandemic developments, the Athens Business Association would like to make everyone aware of the following actions:

• The Greater Valley Chamber of Commerce Banquet has been postponed until May 13, 2020.
• Our B2B mixer scheduled for March 26, 2020, at Civil & Environmental Consultants has been postponed until further notice.
• The Battle of the Bands competition that had been scheduled on March 14 at Mooney's has been postponed until further notice.

In addition, many local businesses are shutting down or limiting hours and access, so please check with the local establishments for each business owner's next actions.

To stay updated, be sure to like and follow the Athens Business Association on the social media of your choice. 

For more information and to stay updated on the Coronavirus Pandemic, the CDC, WHO, and Pennsylvania Department of Health are excellent resources. For small businesses, the SBA has a page dedicated to COVID-19 regarding assistance for businesses affected by the pandemic.

We as a community can slow the spread of COVID-19 by practicing good hygiene and social distancing. Stay healthy and stay safe!

The mission of the Athens Business Association is to provide maximum value to our member businesses and the members of the Athens community. We accomplish this by exchanging and implementing ideas that will help your business be seen by more prospects and providing you with the education and tools to be able to take advantage of the newest trends. We are also committed to improving the community and creating a pleasant environment to encourage the community to shop in the business district.

The way I’ve heard our intentions described the best is “Business focused, community-minded”. It is my belief that if we can build a larger, more active organization through incentives and providing more benefits to our member businesses that not only will we positively affect the business environment of Athens, but we will be able to be more involved in the community than ever before too!

At the end of the day, we would be nothing without the community of Athens and the business owners who donate their time and money to do all the things we do and we want to do our part in giving back in a way that provides value for everyone involved. If you ever have any ideas for how we can provide YOU with value, please do not hesitate to reach out! That being said, we cannot promise that we can accomplish every suggestion, but we do want to hear from you so we know how to better serve you.

I am looking forward to a great year! Thank you for taking the time. Enjoy the site!


Thanks,

Kyle Farr
Athens Business Association
2020 President
