LEADERSHIP NIAGARA TOURS FACTORY

40 members of this year's Leadership Niagara class toured Confer Plastics on November 20th as a part of their Small Business Day. The participants were able to walk the factory floor and see products being made.

Leadership Niagara is a year-long leadership training program for adults who represent a cross section of Niagara County; including business, labor, education, the arts, religion, government, community based organizations, ethnic and minority groups.

They meet for daylong sessions held each month addressing diverse, local needs. LN focuses on helping participants to enhance their understanding and recognition of what our community lacks to become a better place to live and work, followed by becoming involved and making it happen. The program provides opportunities for participants to develop their own personal leadership styles and networking opportunities.
