We are thankful we can take this opportunity at this special time of the year to open the Hancock House and share our thanks with them,” shared Bill Dolback, LARCH Board President.
The Chamber’s “After Business Mixers” provide a networking forum for Chamber Members, area business people, and organizations. In addition, the networking events provide an opportunity to showcase the host as well as promote the door prize sponsors. Networking and connecting with other Chamber Members is a key component of Chamber membership and marketing your business. Chamber members, area businesses, and organizations are encouraged to take advantage of this and all networking opportunities. Join the Chamber to connect with area businesses and organizations, meet new people, and take advantage of the opportunity to hear from the hosts.
The Hancock House is home to the LARCH, formerly the Ticonderoga Historical Society. Founded in 1897 and chartered in 1909, they advanced the preservation and interpretation of history through their collections, programs, and community outreach, preserving the areas past for the future. LARCH makes area history an integral part of community life by connecting past and present. The Hancock House is a museum, research library, and gift shop. They also plan and host several events and programs throughout the year. The LARCH is a not-for-profit organization.
The Hancock House will have four floors of the elegant mansion decorated for the holiday season as part of their Festival of Trees. The trees will be on display through December. The Hancock House is open between 10 am and 4 pm Wednesday through Saturday.

3 Myths about After Business Mixers & Networking Events BUSTED!
Myth: I don’t have time to go to After Business Mixers.
Busted: You don’t have to be there from 5:30 – 7:00. Stop by for 15 or 20 minutes and make some great new contacts.
Myth: It’s awkward…I won’t know anybody there.
Busted: Ask for a Chamber Ambassador or Board Member when you arrive. These outgoing volunteers will introduce you to the crowd and then you will know lots of people. You can also connect with an Ambassador, Board Member, or TACC Staff Member ahead of time.
Myth: I don’t need to go – I’m on social media.
Busted: There is no substitute for face-to-face networking. People do business with people they know…so come to After Hours and get to know more people.
No excuses – we’ll see you at the next After Business Mixer/Networking Opportunity!
