Gateway and Yorktown Chambers: Join Forces to Become One for All

The merger of the Yorktown Chamber of Commerce with the Hudson Valley Gateway Chamber of Commerce took effect in January 2025.

The merger combines and expands resources, opportunities and services for businesses and organizations across northern Westchester County and southern Putnam County. Operational efficiencies, member visibility and influence, community connections and regional initiatives will also be bolstered. Under the Hudson Valley Gateway umbrella, members represent Buchanan, Croton-on-Hudson, Cortlandt, Mohegan Lake (west of Lexington Avenue), Montrose, Peekskill, Putnam Valley, Verplanck and now Yorktown and its five hamlets of Crompond, Jefferson Valley, Mohegan Lake (east of Lexington), Shrub Oak, and Yorktown Heights.

For the Yorktown Chamber of Commerce, which was led by President Karen Trendell, the merger was the next natural step in a three-year journey of transformation and growth, aimed at providing ever greater value to Chamber members.

“Partnering with the Hudson Valley Gateway Chamber of Commerce will bring even more resources, infrastructure, and visibility to our members,” said Ms. Trendell, who now sits on the Gateway Chamber’s Board of Directors. “The merger is a valuable strategic alliance that enhances our ability to serve Yorktown businesses.”

The merger reinforces both Chambers’ strong focus on volunteerism, as evidenced by the highly productive committees that are a hallmark of both organizations.

The Yorktown Chamber’s office at Jefferson Valley Mall now is under the auspices of the Hudson Valley Gateway Chamber of Commerce, expanding its footprint into Yorktown. Gateway’s newly renovated flagship office remains at 1 South Division Street, Peekskill.

Both Chambers greatly value their new unification, and already are mutually benefiting from the best practices and innovative strategies each has developed, with all Chamber members gaining greater access to new resources and regional connections.

Parks & Recreation

With Bear Mountain State Park across the river, Peekskill’s Riverfront Green and Peekskill Landing and several different cruise lines that run up and down the river, chances to glory in the warm sun and fresh air abound.

It’s easy to take for granted all the beautiful scenery that surrounds us. Vacations don’t have to involve long plane trips and lengthy drives to all points around the world. The best way to stay in touch with nature is to enjoy the four seasons of the Northeast. Springtime at the Peekskill Riverfront, Summer hikes in Bear Mountain State Park, Fall cruises up the Hudson and the Winter Wonderland at the Bear Mountain Skating Rink are some of the pleasures we all should enjoy.

What’s New a Hendrick Hudson School District

• Beginning in 2024-25, Universal Pre-K is now available at no cost for all 4-year-old students in the Hendrick Hudson School District. The program will be housed in-district at Buchanan-Verplanck and Furnace Woods Elementary Schools, as well at a Rising Star Children’s Center in Croton-on-Hudson.

• We have restructured our elementary schools for the 2024-25 school year. Buchanan-Verplanck and Furnace Woods Elementary Schools will now house PreK through second grade students. All third through fifth-grade students will attend Frank G. Lindsey Elementary School.

• After a $30-million bond was approved by voters in May 2024, the District is now in the early phases of a capital project to fund much-needed infrastructure and building improvements. The project will also create new, modern learning environments for students.

• Our high school was one of just two schools in Westchester County selected as a PLAN Pilot school by the New York State Education Department. The Performance-Based Learning and Assessment Networks (PLAN) Program was designed to facilitate sustainable changes in school culture. We will work with other PLAN Pilot schools to learn and support each other in successfully implementing performance-based learning and assessment practices.

• After piloting two different programs last school year, we will implement a new, comprehensive literacy program for all elementary school students.

• In the district’s efforts to support the whole child, a robust peer mediation program has been created for the 2024-25 school year.

“The Hendrick Hudson Central School District is excited about the positive impact these new initiatives will have on our students and community. With Universal Pre-K now available to all 4-year olds, phasing in upgraded learning environments through our capital project, and our selection as a PLAN Pilot school, we have set the stage for a bright future in Hendrick Hudson — one that builds upon the district’s previous efforts. Our new literacy program and peer mediation efforts further ensure that every student in Hendrick Hudson is supported academically and emotionally. It’s an exciting time for our district, and I look forward to seeing these opportunities in action. I would like to wish all students and staff a rewarding school year.”

What’s New at Peekskill City School District

• The Peekskill City School District just concluded their centennial year! We celebrated by honoring our rich history all year long. Our culminating event was our Centennial Gala, which we hosted with the Peekskill Education Foundation. The event raised $25,000, which was awarded in the form of a scholarship to five graduating seniors.

• In the 2023-24 school year, Peekskill voters overwhelmingly approved our $44.9 million Capital Project referendum, which will further transform and modernize Peekskill CSD facilities. These tax-neutral projects have already begun and will see completion in 2027.

• The 2023-24 school year saw the Gold Ball return to Peekskill High School as our Boys Varsity Basketball Team won the Section 1 Class AA Championship. Our sports teams also saw other accolades in football and wrestling last year.

• Our students are achieving their dreams! Our Class of 2024 Valedictorian is headed to Harvard University, while our Salutatorian is off to Columbia University this fall. Both students received full scholarships to these Ivy League institutions. Additionally, many of our other graduates have been accepted to over 50 colleges/universities, have enlisted in the Armed Forces, or are headed into career paths and trade schools.

• Our youngest learners at Uriah Hill Elementary found a brand new playground at the school when they arrived this September. Hillcrest Elementary will also receive a new playground with accessibility for students with physical needs. The Hillcrest playground upgrade is thanks to a $200,000 grant from Senator Harckham’s office.

• This year we are excited to introduce the “Pathways for Technology in Early College High School” (P-TECH) and “Smart Scholars” programs for incoming freshmen at Peekskill High School. These grant-funded early college programs will help PHS students earn college credit free of charge through our partnership with Westchester Community College.

• Community partnerships remain strong at PCSD! We continue to partner with numerous organizations through our Parent Resource Center, Saturday Academy, college/career/trade fairs and more.

• Music and art programs are thriving! Our inaugural Elementary Strings program classes reach Grade 12 this year. Our high school theater will see lighting upgrades thanks to a $30,000 grant from Assemblywoman Levenberg’s office.

What’s New at Putnam Valley School District

The Putnam Valley School District prioritizes its C.O.R.E. Values of Community, Opportunity, Resilience, and Empowerment. This year, we fully embrace Opportunity by embarking on an exciting journey toward future-focused learning, with a strong emphasis on cultivating globally minded, curious, and creative learners. Through our continued focus on the International Baccalaureate program for our middle and high school students, we are expanding our 5-12 curriculum to include more opportunities for interdisciplinary learning, critical thinking, and real-world problem-solving. By embedding global perspectives into our lessons, students can better understand diverse cultures and international issues. Our elementary students continue to thrive in our robust literacy program which relies on the latest research presented by the Science of Reading.

Supporting these initiatives is our deep commitment to integrating cutting-edge technology and research-based teaching methods into our classrooms. By incorporating new virtual reality tools like Transvr and Trek for career exploration, we are exposing students to more unique and emerging career paths. These innovations ensure our students are prepared for the future and positioned to lead in a rapidly changing global landscape.

To further support our emphasis on Community, a variety of platforms and programs encourage active engagement from all members of our school community. Collaborative projects with our PTA and PVEF, community-wide events like our First Responder Recognition, and Parent Learning Opportunities, or volunteer opportunities like our Building Steering Committees, ensure that every student, parent, and staff member has a voice and a role in shaping the future of our schools. This approach not only strengthens our community bonds but also ensures that our students learn in an environment that values the power of opportunity. As we move forward, we are excited to see how these initiatives will empower our students to become thoughtful, responsible, and engaged citizens of the world.

Together with an amazing staff, we foster an atmosphere of collaboration and learning. Our dedicated educators are prepared to challenge and inspire our students and I encourage all of our students to embrace the opportunities that lie ahead.

Putnam Valley holds a very special place in my heart. I grew up here and attended our elementary and middle school. I attended high school in the Lakeland School District because Putnam Valley did not yet have their own high school. My mother still lives in town, closely watching over the oldest of her four boys. I am so grateful and so proud to be a part of this community.”

What’s New at Yorktown Central School District

The Yorktown Central School District is a public school district with an enrollment of over 3,400 students. It deeply values educating the whole child through its academic, character education, pupil personnel, and extra-curricular programs.

The academic program is aligned to the New York State Learning Standards with attention to 21st-century skills. The District’s instructional program coupled with an outstanding character education program come together to form the concept of ESTEAM, an approach that places empathy at the forefront of creativity and innovation.

Yorktown’s ESTEAM has become a nationally recognized, award-winning approach to teaching and learning. The District has been recognized as a National District of Character and has been recognized on numerous occasions at the state and national levels for its fine academic program. The Yorktown Central School District is consistently ranked by U.S. News & World Report as one of the top school districts in the nation.

The district’s ESTEAM initiative has also been nationally recognized as a Promising Practice by Character.org. Yorktown High School has been recognized as a National Blue Ribbon School by the United States Department of Education as well as one of the top STEM high schools in the country by Newsweek.

The Yorktown Central School District continues to innovate and invest in its students and facilities. For the 2024-25 school year, the District introduced an American Sign Language (ASL) course at the middle and high school levels, adding to an already robust set of course offerings.

A new engineering program at the middle school further enhances hands-on learning in science and technology. The Aeronautics Club exemplifies Yorktown’s innovative spirit, winning a national championship just two years after its founding. Paired with the District’s recently introduced drone elective, these programs provide students with unique opportunities to explore cutting-edge fields.

Significant facility upgrades were also completed, including a renovated turf field at the high school and parking lot improvements at multiple school buildings.

Additionally, voters overwhelmingly approved a $57 million Capital Bond Project, which will expand all three elementary schools, enhance security measures, add new athletic facilities, and modernize learning spaces across the district.

Hudson Valley Gateway Chamber of Commerce Foundation

The Hudson Valley Gateway Chamber Foundation (HVGCF) is the nonprofit affiliate of the Hudson Valley Gateway Chamber of Commerce (HVGCC). Established in 2018, the mission of the Foundation focuses on:

• Programs & services promoting local tourism & visitor

information resource initiatives

• Supporting higher education and vocational training

through scholarship awards

• Programming to advance sustainable workforce development

Tourism/Services: In carrying out its mission, the HVG Chamber Foundation is developing innovative resources to support regional tourism and enhance the general prosperity of our region. Due to a generous grant from NYS Senator Peter Harckham, the HVG Chamber Foundation is implementing a “Tourism Kiosk” at the Chamber entryway where visitors can easily seek tourism information and then electronically send that data to their smart phones. HVGCC and HVG Chamber’s Foundations new online portable marketing will enhance the tourism experience, leveraging technology and the ability to digitize information when launched this winter. The HVG Chamber Foundation Board recognizes that tourism is essential to the growth of our local businesses and continues to support promotional upgrades and mapping of interest to our region’s visitors

Education/Training Support: Academic and Vocational scholarships are awarded annually to high school seniors in our service area who are pursuing further education. Additionally, the Foundation supports workforce development programs and continues to grant several scholarships to Adult Learners through SUNY Westchester Peekskill.

The HVG Chamber Foundation in concert with the HVG Chamber of Commerce annually conducts a Golf Outing that funds a significant portion of these scholarships.  

Sustainable Workforce Development: Training and educational programs offered to member businesses geared to improving employee production and workplace interactions, including customer relations, work place conduct and expectations; as well a variety of essential business issues including technology advancements, cybersecurity, marketing, and DEI, among others.

Chamber Testimonials

“We are a new business in the area. When we were planning our Grand Opening it was recommended to join the Chamber of Commerce.

We are so glad we did !!

Not only did they make our Grand Opening a huge success but they have assisted us with connections in the community.

We have been blessed to host a few events for the Chamber at Franco Martini. The members and community that visit us are some of the kindest and supportive guests.

We couldn’t be happier with the help and guidance being a member of the Chamber provides.

Thank you to the amazing staff and community. We are honored to be a part of.”

– Karen Stacy, Manager of Franco Martini Restaurant and Bar Croton, NY

“The HVGCC has welcomed the Crotonville Conference Center with open arms. The opportunities for local marketing efforts and networking are a huge resource to us as we launch our marketing and awareness efforts in the Hudson Valley and beyond. The Crotonville Conference Center has so much to offer the members of the HVGCC, so partnering with them only makes sense. Thrilled to be part of this fantastic group.”
