President's Welcome Statement

As President of the Hampton Area Chamber of Commerce representing the towns, from south to north along Route 1, of Seabrook, Hampton Falls, Hampton, Hampton Beach, North Hampton and Rye, New Hampshire, I have the privilege to extend a very warm welcome to our beautiful New Hampshire Seacoast and the towns we serve.

The New Hampshire Seacoast is a very special and inviting place that includes great restaurants, lodging and shopping, along with a wonderful quality of life.

Each of these communities has its own character and its special attractions. There is always something to do, whether it's the free concerts at the North Hampton Gazebo, Odiorne State Park and Science Center in Rye, the Visitors Center at Seabrook Station, Seabrook Greyhound Race Track, apple picking in Hampton Falls or enjoying our beautiful Hampton Beach State Park with miles of pristine beach where, during, the summer season, there are over 80 nights of free entertainment at the Hampton Beach Seashell Stage, fireworks each week and on major holidays and top entertainment at the historic Hampton Beach Casino Ballroom.

Speaking of Hampton Beach - its future is being well planned by the Hampton Beach Commission which has a five and twenty year Master Plan. Number one priority is construction of a new bridge over Hampton Harbor.

The Hampton Area Chamber of Commerce is always available to assist in any way we can. The Chamber represents its member businesses and works with the various communities that we represent, supporting their activities and programs throughout the year.

Please feel free to visit our new office at One Lafayette Road in Hampton or the Seacoast Visitor's Center at One Eighty Ocean Boulevard and pick up a free map of the area or any other brochure available. Be sure to look for the Hampton Chamber Member Decal, proudly displayed, wherever you shop or dine in the area. Hampton Chamber members care about the community and hope you may be able to be a part of it.

Again, welcome and enjoy our beautiful Seacoast Region.

Hampton Area Chamber of Commerce
