Membership affi liation benefi ts: ����The Chamber Affi liate Membership Program began in the Fall of 2012. “Small businesses, non-profi t and civic organizations are at the heart of our national, state, and regional economies – and our chambers of commerce,” said Patricia L. Cluff, Associate Vice President at the University of Virginia Health System and past Chair of the Chamber Board of Directors. “The regional chamber affi liations offer distinct opportunities for our Chamber members, and our neighboring Chamber members, to network and market their products and services to a broader regional marketplace.” ����Eligible Chamber member fi rms and organizations – 10 or fewer employees, based in the neighboring counties of Greene, Orange, Louisa, and Fluvanna and members of those County Chambers – will become affi liated members of the Charlottesville Regional Chamber of Commerce (CRCC), at no additional charge. Reciprocally, Charlottesville Regional Chamber member fi rms with 10 or fewer employees will become affi liated members of the neighboring county Chambers, at no additional charge. ����Charlottesville Regional Chamber of Commerce will continue to maintain our long-standing policy of providing all new members a free hotlink (website linked through our directory) for the fi rst year of affi liate membership. After the fi rst year, hotlinks for affi liates, just like Charlottesville Chamber members, will be $40. This is an optional benefi t. Your business will receive an invoice directly from the CRCC after your fi rst year listed as an affi liate member. ����You are encouraged to view the CRCC website, www.cvillechamber. com, and subscribe to its weekly on-line newsletter and calendar for networking opportunities and chamber events in the region hosted by the Charlottesville Chamber. ����Leverage your GCOC membership and business exposure with this great regional affi liate opportunity!! ����It’s a simple as that. There is no better organization, no better business group, no better civic group to help build your business and this community we call home. Existing members may request a free printed decal to display in their store-front by emailing us. They may also download and display the current membership emblem on their web site by clicking on one of the links below. ����Businesses with 10 employees or fewer who are members of the Greene County Chamber of Commerce can join at no cost, the Small Business Alliance of the Virginia Chamber of Commerce. Value-Added Benefi ts: �� Optima Health Association Plans: Being a member of our Chamber gives you even more opportunities when it comes to your Health Association Plans. Our partnership with Optima Health not only provides you a large selection of health plans but they are a company that gives back to the Chamber. For each member business who also contracts with Optima for their Health Plan needs, Optima Health gives the Chamber a commission of those plans. We in turn use 100% of those funds to support our Scholarship Program each year, where we provide a $2,000 scholarship to a high school graduate for their further college level education. This is just another way that we all work in partnership to touch not only our business members, their employees, but also our community at large. Optima Health is the trade name of Optima Health Plan, Optima Health Insurance Company and Sentara Health Plan, Inc. For costs and complete detail of coverage call Darla Rose at 434-327-1652, drose@ bankersinsurance.net. �� Discounted Membership with Sams Club: Members of the Greene County Chamber of Commerce can now enjoy a discounted membership for Sam’s Club.
