Associate members benefit from
website listings and networking with
other retailers and service providers
with an invitation to spring and fall
dinner meetings and an opportunity
to advertise with other retail
members at an additional cost.
Service membership is designed
for service clubs and village
organizations who will benefit from
website listings and have their events
posted on the calendar of events on
the website.
“Membership does have its
benefits. With the revitalization of
the Village of Blyth, it is important
that the Business Association
become revitalized and strong once
again. However, to do this, the
Association needs you. Without
members, the Association becomes a
committee of a few, making
decisions that require the input of
the entire business and service
community.”
The Association hopes to hold
meetings mornings and evenings to
accommodate most peoples’
schedules. The next Blyth Business
Association meeting will be held on
Thursday, Feb. 28 at 8 a.m. at the
Blyth Inn.
