A Proud Partner of the

Greater Millville Chamber of Commerce

Working Together
To Strengthen Our
South Jersey Communities

     How many of you remember the movement for South Jersey to secede from New Jersey and create a new state?   In 1980, a discussion that innocently enough started as a joke actually made it to a non-binding referendum on the ballot in six counties in South Jersey, and received 51 percent affirmative votes.        

     On April 25, the Greater Millville Chamber of Commerce, with the help of the Glassworks Business Complex and Salmon Ventures, hosted a record nine chambers from six South Jersey counties to discuss the diversity of these counties and how we can better compete with our neighboring counties to the north.   We were also fortunate to have the Lieutenant Governor of New Jersey, Kim Guadagno as the keynote speaker.      

     The tremendous diversity of our own six counties was evident during a discussion with leadership of the various counties.  Casinos, bay/shore, tourism, farming and workforce development were among the many topics discussed before the Lieutenant governor highlighted the many advantages and, yes, challenges of doing business in New Jersey.      

     Although there was no discussion about seceding from New Jersey during this meeting, our marching orders are clear: let’s work together as one large block so that we can make a difference in the way that we live, work and play in wonderful South Jersey.
