Supporting our Local Business Owners

When we heard about the impact the bridge repair was having on the business, the Chamber quickly rallied to produce a graphic to share through social media alerting people that Sheila's Sunny Dale Florist was still open for business. 

The Greater Delhi Chamber of Commerce was thrilled to participate in Small Business Saturday. In conjunction with the Delaware County Chamber of Commerce, we welcomed a re-opening of Sheila's Sunny Dale Florist.  With her business negatively impacted by a several month renovation of the Kingston Street Bridge, we gathered on the Saturday after Thanksgiving to welcome Sheila's back as we marked the end of the bridge repairs. 

Sheila's is open, full of amazing festive arrangements for the holidays. Stop by and say hello to Sheila!

Fast forward a few months, we are thrilled to welcome Sheila's Sunny Dale Florist back to normal.
