Bridgton Business Community
Bridgton’s business community is growing, and we’d love for you to be a part of it! Here are some resources to get you started.
The Chamber
The Greater Bridgton Lakes Region Chamber of Commerce provides residents and guests with helpful resources and fun public events; and it also provides many benefits to local businesses, including networking opportunities/events, member-to-member discounts, weekly e-news with updates from around the region, and advertising opportunities via the chamber’s website, visitor’s guide, and newsletter. Chamber members can also choose to join the Chamber BlueOptions health plan (managed by the Maine State Chamber Purchasing Alliance). Learn more at mainelakeschamber.com.
Young Professionals Group
There is a grassroots Young Professionals Group in Bridgton, working to connect and develop the next generations of local business and community leaders. To find out about upcoming events and join the group, visit the Bridgton Young Professionals Group Facebook page. When the group first started up, they got some press!
