Chamber Merchant Card Soon to be Free for all Residents
Incentive offers discounts for all card holders to further encourage local shopping and dining.

The Garden City Chamber of Commerce is pleased to announce the expansion and enhancement of the Friends of the Chamber Merchant Card.
Beginning in February through Dec. 31, 2012, the card will be distributed free to village residents. The chamber’s goal is to encourage non-Garden City residents and all employees of Garden City businesses who work in the village’s downtown to shop and dine in Garden City.
Initially, the chamber plans to distribute 6,000 new cards with more as needed. Its merchant business base has incentives and discounts for card holders. For a listing of current participating merchants and their offers click here.
