| | | The Chamber Board would like to thank Lauri Klefos, President and CEO of the Berkshire Visitors Bureau, for being our guest speaker at our dinner on the 19th. Denise, Sue and Bob from the '6 House pub for their tours of the new suites and hosting dinner, and also to those of you who attended and took the time out of your busy schedules to join us.
Lauri spoke of how here in the Berkshires, during this economic downturn, to market the Berkshires as a high-quality, already affordable destination for vacationers cutting back. Stating rather than promoting discounts, lets hear about the "added value".
