Testimonials

“The Somers Point Business Association inspires and supports the entrepreneurial spirit. When I was considering opening my own law firm, I left each SPBA meeting feeling my career would be incomplete if I did experience the passion I saw in the small business owners at the SPBA. The SPBA embodies all that is good in the business world – creativity balanced with purpose, competition tempered by compassion, and work integrated with community. This organization educates on useful topics and encourages interactions that generate business and create friendships. I am very proud and grateful to be a part of it.”

“I’ve been a member of the Somers Point Business Association for a number of years. I’ve come to find SPBA as one of the most dynamic groups I belong to. In addition to the promotion of the City and its businesses, the Association does an outstanding job providing pertinent content and opportunities to network at its meetings. Somers Point is a small community but the SBPA does BIG things for its members.”

“The Green Thumb Garden Club of Somers Point is very pleased with the opportunities given to us through our membership in the Somers Point Business Association! Thank you for including us.”

Mary Sue Lovett, Green Thumb Garden Club Treasurer

"The Somers Point Business Association has been an integral part of our community for more than 40 years. I have seen its positive impact on our community as a long-time resident of Somers Point, as a member of the City Council, and now as Mayor. The networking events hosted by the SPBA allow businesses and community members to connect face-to-face, build relationships and share ideas. In today's digital world, where so much interaction with our phones, these in-person events are so important. The SPBA also gives a voice to businesses on a variety of issues that may affect the current and future business climate of Somers Point. Having that voice from an independent, non-governmental entity is extremely valuable to Somers Point today and for years ahead."

Sincerely,  

Dennis Tapp| Mayor  

“Being a small business (art gallery) I rely on the opportunities that the SPBA offers me to partner and network with the larger business community to promote the business of bringing art to residents, visitors, second home owners, businesses and offices. My business allows artists to turn their commissions back into the community. Art is business too!”
