Valentine’s Day is right around the corner and this year, the Bradford Area Chamber of Commerce wants to know more about the favorite businesses in town during the #lovebradford challenge. Executive Director Heidi Scrivo Passmore said they came up with the idea while brainstorming what the organization can do for Valentine’s Day.

“We thought this would be a great idea to tie in Valentine’s Day and tie in businesses,” she explained. “A lot of people in Bradford have wonderful stories about local businesses and we wanted to get people to start talking about their great experiences.”

To participate in the challenge, one can either share a picture, tell a story or simply say what their favorite business is in Bradford on Facebook or Instagram, along with tagging #lovebradford. This can be done on an individual’s own social media page or by commenting on the Bradford Area Chamber of Commerce Facebook page. Additionally, stories/pictures can be emailed to the Chamber at chambercare@bradfordchamber.com.

Passmore said the staff can’t wait to see all of the positive stories of all of the businesses in the area, old and new.

“We can’t wait to see what people have to say,” she said. “The more positive we can say, the better.”
