FEATURED BUSINESS OF THE MONTH - SISKO DENTISTRY
Congratulations to Sisko Dentistry, located at 60 Metric Drive, Tallmadge, Ohio. At our last luncheon, Sisko Dentistry won the Business of the Month. Dr. Gerald Sisko and his associate, Dr. Joseph Landry II head a team of 14 highly trained dental staff members. This long standing dental practice in the Tallmadge community moved to their current new state of the art dental facility in May 2012. Sisko Dentistry enjoys participating in many community events. Tallmadge is more than a business location, Dr. Sisko and many of his staff call Tallmadge, home.
Attend the luncheons and "drop" your business card into the basket to be drawn for the Business of the Month. You will get your business name featured on our website, and a short "blurb" in the Chamber Chatter in the Tallmadge Express, along with out next newsletter. One business card a month will be drawn at the Luncheon meetings.

You can nominate yourself or anyone else in the chamber (Only chamber members qualify). Be sure to see the details of the awards on the Download page.
Nominations will be accepted at the Tallmadge Chamber office at 80 Community Rd Tallmadge, OH 44278, or may be emailed to the Chamber at tallmadgechamber@onecommail.com. Please type “Tallmadge Chamber Awards” in the Subject line.

New Program "Member Deals E-Blast"
Beginning next month (May), the Chamber is going to initiate a new program called "Member Deals E-Blast". Each month, our members will have an opportunity to offer a "special discount/sale" to all members in the Chamber via E-Blast. These "deals" will have an expiration date at the end of the month and must be submitted at least one week before the first day of the month. Each month, we will send out a new e-blast with new deals for that month. Please keep your "Deals" short and sweet, so that our members can view them easily.
Our goal is to provide our members with another opportunity to give back to our members. Along with the deals, our members can continue to offer their ongoing discount offer via the Chamber's Member to Member Discount Program, which can always be found on-line at the Chamber's website, http://www.tallmadgechamber.com.
If you have any specials that you would like to share with others, please send them to tallmadgechamber@onecommail.com and we'll do our best to include them in the next Members Deals E-Blast, scheduled to go out on Friday, June 1st. Please type Member Deals in the Subject line, so that Becky will be able to spot these right away.
