Montclair chamber goes 'green,' launches e-newsletter
The Montclair Chamber of Commerce began its new year by eliminating its printed newsletter, "The Business Express," and moving to an electronic version of the monthly publication. The newsletter, which is sent out at the beginning of each month, links readers to the Web site where they can obtain more in-depth information on the stories and chamber. There are also advertising opportunities for members, according to a news release from the chamber.
The chamber also has arranged a permanent drop-off location for electronic waste for city residents and businesses. Chamber board member Chris Carpenter of Extra Space Storage has donated a storage unit to house the e-waste during the time between chamber sponsored events. Extra Space Storage is at 5548 Arrow Highway and will accept e-waste between 9:30 a.m. and 6 p.m. Mondays through Fridays and 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Saturdays.



Printing an e-newsletter really means it was too expensive to print out and mail a "regular' newsletter.
