These are some of our favorite celebrations—recognizing the milestones of the businesses that help make Bedford County a great place to live, work, play and prosper!

Congratulations to id graphics, located on Main Street in Everett, on celebrating 20 years in business AND 20 years as a member of the Bedford County Chamber of Commerce.

For the past two decades, Corey and Monica Meckes have not only built a successful business, but they have also invested their time talent into strengthening our entire community. With kindness and creativity, they have helped countless local businesses and organizations develop their brands, design logos, create marketing materials, and tell their stories in ways that make a lasting impact.

Beyond their business, Corey and Monica have generously served in leadership roles and volunteered with numerous local organizations, always working to support economic growth, community development, and the success of fellow businesses throughout our region.

We are grateful for their partnership, their commitment to excellence, and their dedication to the Bedford County region.

The Chamber had the pleasure of celebrating a Ribbon Cutting today for the latest Kevin Mearkle history book - "The Revolutionary War Generation of Bedford County," Volume One - through 1777. What a treasure trove of information about the patriots who first settled in the Bedford County Region.

Kevin dedicated the book to those patriots, whose stories of courage and sacrifice he recounts in this important publication, inspiring those who follow in their footsteps.

Just in time for the America250PA - Bedford County festivities, the book is available at the Bedford County Historical Society. And you can hear Kevin speak about his work next Thursday, June 6th at 6:30pm at the Historical Society's The Hall at Kinton's K**b,
including a book signing. Definitely a must-have for personal libraries.

Thank you to Kevin Mearkle for your significant efforts to preserve, promote, and share our history and heritage for future generations, and thank you to Senator Pat Stefano, the office of PA State Rep. Jesse Topper, Commissioner JR Winck, and WJAC-TV News for joining us.

Wait 'til you see the beautiful renovation of this historic property, soon to open as the The Farmhouse Bed and Breakfast at the Fair Family Farms LLC in Manns Choice. Each room has been thoughtfully and elegantly returned to days-gone-by, with gorgeous antiques and long-hidden-away art, while also offering the most modern amenities - outdoor pool/patio/firepit, the perfect-for-rocking front porch, a full kitchen, and the coziest living room and bedrooms.

The Fair/Waugerman/Hillegass families have poured heart and soul into this project, and it shows, and we know so many memories will be shared by other families as they enjoy this special place. (Did we mention the beautiful views of Bedford County farmland in every direction?)

Thank you for your investment in your new business and in preserving the history and heritage of this local treasure. We were honored be able to provide a Ribbon Cutting Celebration today, and welcome to the Chamber! Best wishes for much success.

Thanks to Senator Pat Stefano, the office of PA State Rep. Jesse Topper, Bedford County Commissioner JR Winck, and our Chamber Ambassadors for joining the festivities as well. Look for the listing on Airbnb soon!
