What’s your favorite moment from a Chamber Event?

A few years back our principal agent Kevin Shreve attended a Chamber After Hours with a good friend and business associate. At this event, which was hosted by the Chemung Canal Trust Company, the two struck up a friendly competition to test their networking skills and take full advantage of the feracious atmosphere. The goal was for each to connect with three new people, and get to know them well enough to set up a meeting to continue building on the newfound relationship. From this one event Kevin met two of his best new clients, who he is proud to call colleagues as well.
