Gouverneur Chamber of Commerce
53 Herm Towne Road Gouverneur, NY 13642
Gouverneur "The One and Only"
Gouverneur is the only town of this name in the entire United States. The Greater Gouverneur Area Chamber of Commerce is a community organization whose members work to promote economic vitality and prosperity in the Gouverneur area. Our community offers a business-friendly environment, an excellent hospital, and a small-town atmosphere.
​
The Chamber always looks forward to hosting an annual Flag Day Parade​. The Village park is also the setting for the Gouverneur Chamber's Annual Christmas parade.​ Our new Village Park gazebo is getting rave reviews. It is a beautiful space for community events. It already is hosting events like the Farmer's Market and the Gouverneur Breast & Ovarian Cancer Walk.
​
The Chamber sponsors the Community Garage Sales, the Pumpkin Festival, and the Gouverneur Garden Club Plant Sale.
The village park has recently undergone extensive upgrades and redesign. The park is bordered by churches, the Gouverneur Library, the Gouverneur Museum and Main Street shops. The giant "LifeSavers®" in the Village Park is always a conversation starter. The story behind its arrival in the Village Park is an interesting one. ​​​
​
Gouverneur is home to large companies like Cives and Kinney Drugs, but included in our membership, are many other wonderful large and small businesses. The Gouverneur and St. Lawrence County Fair draws hundreds from all over the North Country, as does our Flag Day parade and other events.
