100 Years Young!
Supervisor Alex Gromack Presents
Certificate to Stella Genua of the Congers 1 Senior Citizen’s Club for Stella’s 100th Birthday Celebration
on June 25, 2008 at the Congers Community Center Suffern debuts new information kiosk and website By Philip Umbrino On Wednesday morning, June 25th, the Suffern Chamber of
Commerce, the Village of Suffern and The Suffern Parking Authority hosted a
special dedication of a new permanent kiosk on the corner of Lafayette and
Chestnut Street, and the launch of a new Website: www.sufferndowntown.com. Suffern shops Crumbs Bakery and
Georgie Porgie's provided refreshments to the small but enthusiastic crowd
gathered.
The kiosk is a gift to the village downtown from the previous Chamber
leadership team, which includes four back-lit (lighted) 26” x 32” panels in
which two are available for advertising rotation by Suffern Chamber members,
and two panels will be used ongoing to promote Chamber and Suffern Village
events.
The new sufferndowntown.com web site was created and paid for the
Suffern Parking Authority. The informational site is interactive and serves
as the portal to promote Suffern downtown, which features a full list of
shops and restaurants that both locals and tourists can discover. The site
also has a collection of points of interest that anyone looking for an
experience outside of the Palisades Mall or New York can check out, and a
fully functional map feature allowing directions to anywhere visitors to the
site wish to look at closer. Finally, a small history section highlights the
beginnings of Suffern village and its historical importance.
Of particular interest on the new sufferndowntown.com website is the
Virginia Menscher Gazebo Summer Concert Series, which has six more
performances scheduled through August. Those performing include Kurt
Gallagher, with a children’s concert, and Reflections, a big band style
concert.
