Congratultions to Dave Purdy!

Our August 2024 Ambassador of the Month!

The Batavia Chamber of Commerce is thrilled to announce that the August Ambassador of the Month is Dave Purdy! Dave is new to the Ambassador program this year and has hit the ground running. He contacts members on our behalf and attends our events, including ribbon cuttings for new members.

Dave’s outgoing and friendly nature makes him a natural for the Ambassador program. He works for Chamber member McNally’s Heating and Cooling in business development. He’s also active in the Fox Valley as a musician, performing as Afternoon Logic. As an Ambassador, your dedication and efforts are appreciated and highly valued by the Board of Directors, Chamber staff and membership! Thank you, Dave!

Congratulations to Long Branch Tree Service!


Third time was the charm for the ribbon cutting for Long BranchTree Services!

Summer storms had them busy helping to clean up around the community and this ribbon cutting was rescheduled three times! The Batavia Chamber of Commerce was thrilled to finally celebrate Thursday morning with co-owners, Matt and Cody Schuhow, their family, staff and supporters and to welcome them to the Batavia Chamber. What a fun way to begin the day!
