We had a wonderful time hosting a Greater Utica Chamber Business After Hours event at our Arnold Ave. building last week! Attendees learned more about our Employment Solutions program and Progress Industries business enterprises, both of which provide meaningful, competitive employment for people with disabilities in our community.
The evening wouldn't have been possible without our amazing partners. A special thank you to everyone at the chamber, Chrome City Catering by Knuckleheads Brewhouse for the delicious food, BTS Event Support Crew, LLC. for event services, Saranac for beverage donations, and Belvedere's Italian Ice for donating delightful frozen treats!
