Ann Arbor Area Chamber Of Commerce

This is a pretty good association. If you own a business in this area you should really consider joining. They have a lot of networking events and resources to benefit you and your business.
Nancy Shore is the program director of Get Downtown here. This program is really important if you have employees working downtown. It will help you to get Go Passes for all of your full time employees for just $ 5! Which must be supplied to them for free by you. But it’s an excellent perk and no one can complain about the parking anymore. Those Go Passes will get you discounts at many of the local businesses in Ann Arbor.

Gift certificates are usually so limiting… but think about this — an ANN ARBOR gift certificate! How cool is that?!
Yup, at the Chamber of Commerce you can purchase «Ann Arbor Gold» gift certificates. They are redeemable at over 130 shops, restaurants, etc. around Ann Arbor. You could use it anywhere from the Art Center to the Michigan Theatre, from the Paint store to the lumber yard, from the Gandy Dancer to Pizza House.
There is no fee to purchase them at the Chamber or at a few local banks (check the website, click on «chamber store» for more info). You can also buy them online, but I’m not sure if there’s a fee — you’d need to check.
BOTTOM LINE: Don’t limit your family/​friends with a single-​store gift certificate, get them an Ann Arbor Gold certificate and let them choose a new place to try around town!
