Chambers of Commerce go about Business Unusual

 

Hackensack Chamber Goes with the Flow

On July 31, 2003, Members of the Greater Hackensack Chamber of Commerce joined Hackensack Riverkeeper for two eco-cruises this summer. Passengers dined on a picnic dinner as they cruised up the Hackensack River from the Red Roof Inn in Secaucus to the Court Street Bridge in Hackensack. Hackensack Riverkeeper provides narrated eco-cruise charters for business and community groups from May to October. It’s not too early to book for 2004; please call Hugh Carola at 201-968-0808.

 

 

 

Getting To Know You: Networking on the Water

In keeping with the HRI philosophy that a healthy environment is good business, on Sept. 12, 2003, Hackensack Riverkeeper teamed up with the Meadowlands Regional Chamber of Commerce and the Hudson County Chamber of Commerce for a networking picnic at Laurel Hill Park in September. After a picnic dinner, chamber members networked while cruising with Captains Bill Sheehan and Hugh Carola and experienced first-hand the success of environmental reclamation along the Hackensack River.
