CHENANGO COUNTY - Commerce Chenango spent Valentine's Day spreading the love to their members and community across Chenango County.

Employees spent the day handing out bundles of carnations to Chamber members as well as members of the community as they walked by the storefront in downtown Norwich. Membership and Program Development Coordinator Lu Dick also traveled to Bainbridge, South New Berlin, and Mount Upton to bring carnations to members across the county.

"We want the community to know that we care about them, we care about our members, and we wanted to spread some love," said Dick. "We just wanted to bring some cheer and some love to those who might need it on Valentine's Day."

Director of Communications and Tourism Audrey Robinson also gave credit to Will MacGuire of Live Event NY, who supported their initiative by decorating their front windows.
