Greetings from the Chamber

The Bernardsville Chamber of Commerce continues to grow, and today our members include over 140 businesses from Bernardsville and surrounding towns.

Our members include an array of businesses such as art galleries, book stores, consignment shops. jewelry stores, clothing stores, gift and specialty shops, florists, restaurants and many other services.

One need not shop at the malls but in one's own backyard, as our members are dedicated in offering the very best quality of products and services. So please make sure you shop in Bernardsville this holiday season and year round—and, while doing so, make sure you take the time to dine at one or more of our ever-growing selection of fine restaurants.

On behalf of the Chamber, please accept our thanks for your past patronage and for shopping in Bernardsville this holiday season.

Unity Day is the Chamber's major event to raise money for local charities.

Unity Day is a day to get re-connected and to bring the residents, families, and the businesses of Bernardsville and neighboring towns together for a day of fun, unity and family festivities.

In 2009, over 75 sponsors made this event a huge success raising over $9,000. for our chosen charities with over 3000 people enjoying the day.

The highlights of the day typically consist of an old fashion BBQ run by the fire dept, live music, rides, games, Police Dept Safety program, Fire Company and First Aid equipment and business displays by local merchants.

Our attractions consist of petting zoos; pony rides, slides obstacle courses and many other attractions.

Unity Day, is a wonderful time to bring the commUNITY together to raise $ for the Fire Company and our senior citizens.
