Mary’s Welcome

welcome Opportunity is Knocking!

“In the middle of adversity there is great opportunity.” ~ Albert Einstein

Welcome to the Land of Opportunity - the Breezeway communities of East Jordan, Ellsworth and Atwood.

Our world has certainly changed a lot in the last six months, but in many ways, the changes have highlighted the amazing opportunities our area has to offer.

This year’s guide is a little different. It’s basically divided into five Sections of Opportunities - Family Fun, Recreation, Community, Business and Education. Whether you are a resident or a visitor, get outside and enjoy our lakes, rivers and trails year round. Check out our galleries, museums and attractions. Don’t forget to visit the farms and farmers’ markets. And, while some events and festivals may be cancelled or postponed this year, others will be held, so please check either the event websites (web addresses included) or the Chamber website (www.ejchamber.org) for updates. You can also stay informed by signing up for the Chamber email newsletter from our website. Some of the biggest current opportunities in the area are in the Business community. In the Business section of this guide, you can read about the many types of support available for anyone thinking of starting or expanding a business. Plus, the fact that interest rates are so low, make it an ideal time to invest in the future.

Opportunities are not only abundant in terms of business, but in terms of lifestyle. Low mortgage rates; award-winning schools; superior medical, health & senior services; very active organizations, clubs and houses of worship… all this and more, make the East Jordan and surrounding areas the perfect place to raise a family or retire. So, don’t miss out! Opportunity is knocking!

Most sincerely, Mary H. Faculak, President/CEO
