The community is invited to join the Tioga County Chamber of Commerce and the Watkins Glen Area Chamber of Commerce to celebrate a ribbon cutting at Haefele Connect on Thursday, July 26 at 1 p.m. The ribbon cutting will take place at Haefele\u2019s office, located at 24 East Tioga St. in Spencer. The celebration is a culmination of 35 years in business and a summer of changes including a new look and an updated name.<\/p>\n
Haefele was started by Lee Haefele as a local cable company. Haefele got his start in 1982 with a technical background in television repair. He and his loyal employee base have since grown the company to include 22 municipalities within New York State. In fact, many of the employees have been with the company for more than 15 years. <\/p>\n
The company celebrates its local roots by giving back to the community through projects such as the renovation of Nichols Park Pond, supporting !nspire S-VE Community & Fitness Center, The Broome-Tioga County Relay for Life, and Tioga Allies in Substance Abuse Prevention. <\/p>\n
As Haefele Connect celebrates this milestone, they look forward to keeping their subscribers connected to world class media, maintaining their connection to the local communities that they serve, and delivering reliable, local service. <\/p>\n
“We have an amazing, dedicated team,\u201d said Marketing Manager Amber Harris, adding, \u201cIt\u2019s just like a family here, and we genuinely care about our customers. Because we have onsite local technicians, we can often fix a problem within the same day. Most of our staff have worked here for over ten years, and they are incredibly knowledgeable.\u201d <\/p>\n
Tioga County Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Gwen Kania stated, \u201cWe are thrilled when local businesses reach significant milestones. Haefele Connect has served Tioga County and the surrounding areas building a solid client base and good reputation for service.\u201d<\/p>\n
Watkins Glen Area Chamber President and CEO Rebekah Carroll added, \u201cHaefele has accomplished so much in thirty-five years, and we couldn\u2019t be more proud to be a part of this celebration.\u201d<\/p>\n
