Welcome to the Bucksport Bay Area Chamber of Commerce.  Come on in and look through our site.  We will tell you about our region, our members and our businesses.  If you have any questions or need more information we have provided you ways to contact us. We are a growing chamber with 200 members and enjoy being active. We welcome new businesses and work hard to continue supporting our established businesses. 

Our area has lots to do.  You can shop, hike, canoe, kayak, enjoy a movie, eat ice cream and relax with a great cup of coffee.  Want to take your boat out, or take a day cruise we can help you arrange that.  In the winter you can snow shoe, cross country ski and use the snowmobile trails. Reading is important in Maine and our bookstore is first class.  Just don’t sit on the cats chair!  We have great places to stay and relaxed dining.

The Bucksport Bay Festival, Orland River Day, The Pumpkin Fest in Blue Hill, Searsport’s Fling into Fall, Spirit of the Holidays, Ghostport, The Pirates are Coming are all events to enjoy this year.

There are many opportunities to volunteer and clubs to join.  So enjoy your tour of our site and come visit us at 52 Main Street, Bucksport, Maine.

2011 Referral Program
Simply refer a new member to join the BBACC. In order to be "new," they must either have never been a member or have been a non-member for at least 2 years. Once your referral becomes active, you will receive a $25 discount (or refund if you've already paid) toward your membership dues. This offer is valid up to the full amount of your 2011 dues. So get out there and Refer a New Member and Save!

2011 Friend of the Chamber
Do you want to support the Chamber? Do you want to take part in Chamber events, but don't have a business to join under? We have a solution. For 2011, the BBACC has created a "Friend of the Chamber" membership. The $50 membership dues give you (an individual) access to all the chamber activities (business after hours, business breakfasts, annual dinner, golf tournament, christmas party, etc) and give you an opportunity to support the Chamber financially. The membership DOES NOT include business benefits (oil discount program, 24 hour information center, etc). If you would like to join the Chamber as a Friend of the Chamber, please call us today!
