HUDSON, NY — The Hudson Business Coalition, Inc. (HBCi) and the Columbia County Chamber of Commerce recently came together for the Fourth Annual Summer Party, bringing businesses from throughout Hudson and Columbia County together for an evening of connection, celebration, and community at Henry Hudson Riverfront Park.
Now in its fourth year, the Summer Party has become a favorite annual gathering, celebrating the businesses, entrepreneurs, community leaders, and organizations that help make Hudson and Columbia County such a vibrant place to live, work, visit, and do business.
Set along the Hudson River, the evening gave members of the local business community an opportunity to step away from the workday, reconnect with familiar faces, make new connections, and celebrate the strong network of businesses that exists throughout the county.
“The Summer Party is one of my favorite events of the year because it brings together businesses from Hudson and across Columbia County in a really relaxed and welcoming setting,” said William Blowers, President of the Hudson Business Coalition. “Our local businesses are stronger when we know one another, support one another, and work together. This night is really a celebration of that spirit.”
The Hudson Business Coalition and Columbia County Chamber of Commerce extend a special thank you to Columbia Memorial Health and Mid-Hudson Fiber, whose generous sponsorship helped make this year’s Summer Party possible. The organizations also thank Alltown Fresh for providing the food, Catskill Charters for offering ferry rides on the Hudson River, and Cocktails Elite Mobile Bar Service for serving drinks throughout the evening.
“We are incredibly grateful to the businesses and organizations that stepped up to support this event,” added Blowers. “Their generosity allowed us to create a special evening for our business community and is a wonderful example of the spirit of partnership that exists throughout Columbia County.”
The annual Summer Party is a collaboration between HBCi and the Columbia County Chamber of Commerce, reflecting the organizations’ shared commitment to supporting local businesses, building meaningful connections, and strengthening the greater Columbia County business community.
HBCi and the Chamber thank everyone who joined them at the riverfront and helped make the Fourth Annual Summer Party a success. Both organizations look forward to continuing their partnership and bringing Hudson and Columbia County businesses together again next summer.
