CHENANGO COUNTY — Commerce Chenango will be hosting their first Chenango Women's Leadership Conference on Tuesday, March 26 at the Canasawacta Country Club in Norwich.

The conference will include keynote speakers, panel discussions, and networking opportunities all geared toward providing the women of Chenango County and the surrounding areas the tools and resources they need to be successful in entrepreneurship, wealth management, and leadership.

The event has already garnered a huge interest, with approximately 185 local women registered to attend. Commerce Chenango also extended an invitation to two female students from all 16 school districts under DCMO BOCES.

Although the conference is sold out, Commerce Chenango Economic Development Specialist and Women's Leadership Conference Organizer Jenna Ostrander said they have begun a waiting list, in case some schools are unable to send students. For more information, contact Commerce Chenango at 607-334-1400.
