🎉 Congratulations to Chamber member Trade Design Build! They have been named one of America’s top 100 small businesses in the U.S. Chamber of Commerce’s CO—100.

We’re excited to see a local business earn national recognition. Please join us in congratulating the Trade Design Build team!

Trade Design Build is proud to be a CO—100 2026 honoree, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce’s annual list celebrating 100 small- and mid-sized businesses across the nation.

While our reputation for delivering exceptional customer service helped us qualify, it was our dedication to leading with sustainable architecture, construction, and woodwork that stood out.

This award from CO- by U.S. Chamber of Commerce is proof quality craftsmanship backed by a design-first team is still the gold standard for modern construction.

Talk to our team to start your next residential or commercial project with an award-winning company.

The Watkins Glen Area Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors is saddened by the passing of Ron Beck.

Through Magnolia Place Bed & Breakfast and his long career in hospitality, Ron was a familiar and valued presence in the Schuyler County business and tourism community. He brought warmth, professionalism, and a genuine commitment to the people and visitors he served.

Ron also generously shared his time and experience through five years of service on the Chamber Board of Directors, including service on the Executive Committee and as Board Chair.

His dedication to our community, hospitality experience, and willingness to get involved will be remembered by many throughout Schuyler County.

On behalf of the Watkins Glen Area Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors, we extend our sincere condolences to his wife, Katy; his son, Andrew; and all of his family, friends, and those who knew him.
