Our Groups focus is to establish connections and relationships with the downtown area businesses and thereby grow our Chamber membership. In order to do so, we are currently exploring the opportunity for new & additional chamber member benefits to attract and retain downtown area members. Some of these opportunities include: marketing opportunities with the River Ship Romance, Amtrak, Downtown Farmers Market and investigating the current marketing opportunities at the Sanford/Orlando Airport.

A by-product of these efforts will be in becoming a voice for our downtown members on issues and opportunities and providing a channel for communication.
