Member of the Nassau Council of Chambers of Commerce
Farmingdale Chamber of Commerce Newsletter
The Farmingdale Chamber of Commerce is pleased to announce John Jessup was selected as our Nassau Council of Chambers of Commerce 2016 Outstanding Small Businessperson of the Year.
Each year, the Nassau Council of Chambers of Com-merce encourages it members to select an Honoree to receive this prestigious award. The Honoree must meet the following criteria:
Active Member of the Chamber of Commerce
Owns or manages a business located in the community
Has made a significant contribution to the local economy, to the advancement of the Chamber and has made a meaningful and important contribution to the general welfare of the local community.
The Farmingdale Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors unanimously agreed that John fully meets and exceeds these criteria and is proud to rec-ognize him as our 2016 Honoree.
John Jessup is the owner of Rita’s Italian Ices, located at 180C Merritts Road in Farmingdale, which opened in July 2014. He takes great pride in his store because not only is he the owner of the business he also did all the construc-tion work himself due to his architectural and carpentry skills.
John has enjoyed working in the food service industry for over the last 40 years with stops all along the east coast from Boston to Florida. He prides himself on his people skills and the cleanliness of his establishment.
As an active member of the Farmingdale Chamber, John can been seen marching in the towns parades (as Ice-Guy, the store mascot) and attending lunch and after hours socials to interact with fellow members and help recruit new members.
John has sponsored youth teams within the community and helped Farming-dale High School raise $1500 through fundraising this season alone. He also made it a mission, which was completed this past June, to give every student of all four elementary schools a free Italian Ice as a treat!
John said “I want to thank the chamber and its members for choosing me to receive this incredible award, I am incredibly honored. This award was not even on my radar or list of things to accomplish in this wonderful town. I look forward to many more years.
Please join us to celebrate! Tuesday, October 18, 2016 | 6 - 9 pm

Have you had a chance to enjoy Farmingdale’s ‘LIVE AT FIVE ON MAIN’ during July or August? Main Street was packed as many enjoyed a very fun social evening of
music, family, friends and food. I myself enjoyed these evenings very much; the threat of summer storms didn’t hold anything back, well maybe for an hour or so! Kudos to Farmingdale Village and all event planners, promoters, participating merchants and sponsors.
Our events are not just limited to Main Street. During this summer we have had After Hours Networking at Jenny Craig and Zona! Keep a close eye on the calendar of events to keep up with our busy networking schedule. September brings us to Verona Restaurant, located at 1255 Melville Road, across
from SUNY Farmingdale; make sure to join us for lunch at 12 Noon on September 1. The Chamber has been very busy welcoming new businesses to Farmingdale with Ribbon Cuttings. All are welcome to the ribbon cuttings. Come join us to welcome new local companies opening… the more the merrier!!!
Congratulations to John Jessup of Rita’s Italian Ices. He is this year’s honoree as the chamber’s Outstanding Businessperson of 2016. John is active in helping the Cham-ber on the membership committee, donates his time to Chamber events as well as being very active in the Farmingdale School District. John is the epitome of helping
improve our town and running a very professional company. Congratulations, John! Well deserved. Please join us at Croxley’s Ale House, in The Garden (their new, premier event space!), on Tuesday, October 18, 2016 from 6 - 9 pm to honor John. All are welcome; bring a friend!
We are very fortunate that the Daily News has chosen Farmingdale to participate in a special section; DISCOVER LONG ISLAND. Board Member Dave Saul is working diligently with the Daily News to set up this section that will be out September 25. Please look for emails with more information.
Membership is at an ALL TIME HIGH! I am so proud and happy that our membership committee has been so active in helping grow our membership. Many thanks to all of them: Joseph Leone, Safeguard by Bradley Marketing Group; Heather Anderson, Bethpage Federal Credit Union; Chris Wider, Priestley Chiropractic; Chris Cornett, Merrill Lynch; Chris Dudley, People's United Bank; John Jessup, Rita's Italian Ices; and
Joseph P. Tafuro, CPA. Speaking of membership… the value of YOUR membership will soon increase! I’m excited to announce that the chamber is in the process of moving to a brand new, responsive website, along with a new member management system - pro-
vided by Chambermaster.com. The board has long recognized that while our current website is adequate and useful, after almost 10 years it has become dated. Our invaluable chamber Administrator, Jo Wider, will be able to maintain our new website to keep our content fresh and
relevant. And you or one of your employees will be able to keep your business’ or organization’s content up-to-date! Members will have the opportunity to log into the system and create their own Mem-
ber Webpage for increased exposure; enhance their business directory listing with much more content including photos and videos; publish important dates on the Com-munity Calendar; offer special Deals to the community to increase sales; promote Member to Member Deals to share discounts with fellow members; Post Job Opportu-nities to find qualified employees; and submit News Releases about your business or
organization. There’s even a social media-like feature that will enable you to com-municate with fellow chamber members. Another feature of this new system will enable you to view all the traffic you get through using these membership benefits. Members can see how many people click on
your advertisements through Chambermaster; how many people have searched for your business on Google; and how many click through you have gotten through being listed in our directory; which are all useful when tracking the investment of chamber membership.
Be on the lookout for an email explaining how to create your member log in!

STEVE AND LISA GARDNER OF 3A-TRAVEL AGENCY ATTEND SANDALS RESORTS LUX-URY INCLUDED® WORSKSHOP IN HAUPPAUGE, NEW YORK HAUPPAUGE, NY – STEVE AND LISA GARDNER of 3A-TRAVEL AGENCY participated in a comprehensive travel agent workshop to learn about the latest updates and the future of Sandals Resorts International (SRI), the parent company of Sandals Resorts, Beaches Resorts, Fowl Cay Resort and Island Routes Caribbean Adventures. Stemming off the company’s newest campaign, “When Everything’s Included, Don’t Worry About a Thing”, GAME ON!! Workshop participants received a plethora of fresh materials to give them and their clients a closer look at the brands. Attendees also discovered more about recent developments in the resort company’s portfolio including the expansion of Sandals Barbados, Sandals La-Source Grenada Resort & Spa, and the much anticipated, over-the-water villas at Sandals Royal Caribbean Resort & Private Island in Jamaica. Every attendee is also eligible to become a Certified Sandals Specialist (CSS), part of an elite group of travel agents recognized by the travel industry as experts in the world’s only Luxury Included® Resorts. The CSS program is the most powerful agent-supplier partnership in the industry, providing coveted benefits including access to exclusive marketing tools, bonus incentives, car wraps, familiarization tours and more. According to STEVE AND LISA GARDNER of 3A-TRAVEL AGENCY, these workshops are important opportunities to gain firsthand knowledge of these distinct brands. “My number one priority is ensuring my clients get the best value when choosing their travel destination,” said LISA GARDNER. “Through this program, I’ve gained a deeper understanding of the Luxury Included Vacation experience and unique islands in the Caribbean. As a Certified Sandals Specialist, my clients can rely on my expertise when booking their next escape.” According to Gary Sadler, Senior Vice President of Sales for North America at Unique Vacations, Inc., an affiliate of the worldwide representatives for Sandals Resorts and Beaches Resorts, choosing to book with a CSS travel agent is one of the best decisions trav-elers can make. “Deciding where to spend hard-earned dollars and finding the perfect place to turn off and reconnect is not always an easy task,” said Sadler. “As a CSS agent, STEVE AND LISA GARDNER are equipped with the necessary tools to plan the ultimate va-cation for his or her clients. We congratulate STEVE AND LISA GARDNER on their dedication to serve their clients and this outstanding distinction. We look forward to working in tandem for years to come.” For more information contact Lisa 516.753.1515 xt. 1386 or [email protected]
