Introducing the

NEW! Genesee County Place Guide

Deadline:  Friday July 24th, 2026

The Genesee County Chamber of Commerce is proud to introduce the inaugural edition of the Genesee County Place Guide, a new annual publication designed to tell the story of Genesee County through the people, places, businesses, experiences, and communities that shape it.

More than a traditional visitor guide or business directory, the Place Guide will serve as a year-round resource for visitors, residents, prospective residents, businesses, and community stakeholders.

Through compelling photography, local stories, destination information, dining, recreation, special events, and a comprehensive Chamber Member Directory, the Place Guide will provide an authentic look at Genesee County and the qualities that make it a great place to visit, live, work, and do business.
