It’s a good thing goosebumps don’t show on camera..

We picked today to film the commercial for the 17th Annual Golf Classic thinking it would be a bright sunny day, perfect for an outdoor commercial. We were wrong about the sunny weather, but right about the television personalities. Both Larry and Cindy our 2009 Golf Classic Chairs did a great job with the commercial despite the chilly weather.

A special thanks to KCAU for taping the commercial and guiding us along the way. Can’t wait to see everyone on the course, Monday June 22nd at the Chamber Golf Classic!

We’re Happier than You :)

According to the new Happiness Index, from mainstreet.com, Nebraskans are the most cheery of us all. Why did the Cornhusker State rank the highest on the national happiness scale? Overall, it ranked 2nd in lowest number foreclusures, 2nd in lowest unemployment rates and 5th in lowest percentage of non-mortgage debt by income. The Happiness Index factors in these variables to determine which states are doing the best in this time of economic distress. The midwest came out on top. Locally, Nebraska was number 1 while Iowa ranked 2nd and South Dakota ranked 8th overall.

Mainstreet.com is a business and financial news and advice website. They plan on updating the Happiness Index monthy. Can Nebraska stay on top with its corn production economy or will the ill-fated talk of ethanol play out and effect the state? In the meantime, rejoice with the midwest and check out the Happiness Index for yourself at http://tiny.cc/zOscV

Hi. I’m Alicia and I’m also a social media intern at the Siouxland Chamber of Commerce. I’m excited to have the blog up and running. Hopefully we can turn it into a really useful tool for the chamber. I’m currently a junior at Morningside College here in Sioux City. I’m a biology major, mass communications minor and I write for and edit the school newspaper. Welcome to the Siouxland Chamber’s new blog!

Another Siouxland Site Receives Certification!

We just sent out a press release that announced the certification by CH2MHill of an 80 acre site in Roth Industrial Park in South Sioux City, NE. This certification allows us to aggressively market the site as “shovel ready.”  What this means is that the site is ready to build on by any company looking to expand in Siouxland. To get certified, the site must meet numerous qualifications that ensure the site is ready to go. We are excited about this announcement because this site is the third site in Sioux City Metro that has received certification. Each of the three states in the metro now have a certified site, giving us maximum flexibility in what we can offer expanding companies.
