President & Chief Executive Officer tonyi@lehighvalleychamber.org
Assistant to the President, Chamber Foundation, Nonprofit & Business Partners Council & HR
As I step into my role as Chair of the Board of Governors for the Greater Lehigh Valley Chamber of Commerce, I’m excited to look ahead with a theme that’s been a constant in my work and life: collaboration
In my day job, in my volunteer roles, and especially on my radio show A Closer Look (which just won Best Overall Series in Pennsylvania – thank you, WDIY listeners!), I’ve seen how partnerships can spark ideas, solve problems, and create opportunities that none of us could achieve alone!
The Lehigh Valley is fortunate to be home to such a rich network of nonprofits, businesses, educators, elected officials, and community leaders who are
always ready to roll up their sleeves and work together. This year, I hope we can take that spirit even further — building bridges between sectors and finding strategic ways to combine resources
The Chamber has always been a connector, and we can be an even stronger catalyst for regional progress. By partnering with other organizations, listening closely to the needs of our members, and fostering an environment where ideas can cross-pollinate, we can ensure our creative community continues to thrive!
Here’s to a year of big ideas, bold collaborations, and sincere teamwork that makes Lehigh Valley an even better place to live, work, and grow.

AMBASSADORS & SMALL BUSINESS COUNCILS
SMALL BUSINESS COUNCIL
Brenda Robinson, CDR Consultants, LLC Small Business Council Board Member
Why I Joined the Small Business Council: As the founder of CDR Consultants LLC, I bring a deep passion for empowering micro and small businesses, especially those rooted in community and vision. My journey has been shaped by over a decade of helping individuals restore their credit. In the past two years, I’ve focused on guiding entrepreneurs in building strong business credit foundations.
I joined the Small Business Council because I believe in creating spaces where dreamers become builders. Many aspiring business owners have incredible ideas but lack the tools to structure their business for long-term success. That’s where education matters most. From entity formation to financial planning, these early steps are critical, and I’m committed to helping others navigate them with clarity and confidence.
Through CDR Consultants LLC, I’ve led youth financial literacy workshops, volunteered as a SCORE mentor, and facilitated an online biblical financial literacy study quarterly for three years. and Lehigh Valley Stands UP for Housing, advocating for economic justice and sustainable development. These roles reflect my belief that financial literacy isn’t just about numbers—it’s about dignity, legacy, and transformation.
August was my first meeting with the Council, and I’m excited to learn and contribute throughout the year by supporting educational initiatives, mentoring new entrepreneurs, and helping micro businesses leverage Chamber resources to grow and thrive. When we work together, we build stronger communities, and I’m honored to be part of that mission.
MAIN STREET LEHIGH VALLEY
Jody Piagesi, Northampton Pool & Patio Chair, Chamber Foundation
The borough of Nazareth has a rich history, unique cultural charm, craftsmanship and small-town warmth. The downtown is a perfect place to stroll, shop local and soak in the architecture. With its deep Moravian roots, internationally renowned Martin Guitar, and welcoming vibe, Nazareth feels like one of those places where the past is alive and the people are proud to share their story. Recently, the
Chamber Foundation partnered with the Borough to install a new lighted kiosk to share important information and special events with residents and visitors. The location of the kiosk in front of the newly renovated Borough Council Chambers provides access to information for Moravian Hall Square residents who may not have a smart phone or the Internet.

TALKING BUSINESS WITH TONY IANNELLI: LEAVE A LEGACY OF SMASHING THROUGH CEILINGS OF DOUBT
By Tony Iannelli | Special to The Morning Call
PUBLISHED: August 3, 2025
It’s summer! The Phillies are in a battle for first place, and that’s a good thing. The Eagles have begun their practice sessions, and that’s a bad thing. Now, before you start calling me very bad words, let me explain.
You see, as I mentioned before, I love summer. I love everything about summer. Heck, my granddaughter’s first name is Summer. I’ve loved summer since I’m a little kid. I loved swimming at Cedar Beach pool. I loved seeing friends and playing softball at Muhlenberg playground. I loved the smell of Coppertone. I loved eating hotdogs and potato salad at family picnics. I love the alluring sounds of screeching seagulls at the shore. And I smile big at the scent of a freshly mowed lawn.
My love of summer recently connected me to the thought of legacy. The topic of Romper Day came up. Romper Day is an Allentown thing that was developed by the ever-famous Gen. Harry Trexler as a way for young people to celebrate summer.
I remembered it was one of the greatest days of my life. Hundreds of joyful kids from the various playgrounds across the city packed the incredible Allentown Fairgrounds to both compete and celebrate in various ways. Most of us didn’t realize at that very moment we were living in a little slice of heaven.
But the best part of Romper Day was that the parks department would provide a hot dog, a drink, some chips and a creamsicle for all participants. As a kid from a big family, that was like going to Top Cut for the finest
Turns out that Gen. Trexler had some great ideas as to how he might impact the future and touch his fellow citizens. I’m not sure he realized just how many or how deeply he would. He was a very successful man who had a passion to give back, and it shows to this day with the amazing park system that Allentown enjoys. Whether it’s a walk in Lehigh Parkway or taking wedding pictures at the Rose Gardens, you can thank good old Harry for the joy. Not to mention the hardworking people at the city’s parks department.
It made me wonder about legacies and how important legacy is. I wonder if maybe we’re losing a bit of the importance of passing treasures on for the benefit of others. Gen. Trexler was a very successful man, but it was important for him and his wife to share that wealth for generations to come. With the incredible impact his Trexler Trust continues to have many years later … well, that’s just legacy on steroids.
All this makes me think about ceilings. Not like the one my dad stapled to our old-school family room ceiling in the basement, or the wildly painted one we at times out-of-control kids painted with DayGlo paint illuminated by a black lamp. We called it the Hippie Hole, and it felt like it was straight out of the British invasion of the ’60s. My parents were so busy feeding seven kids that it gave us maybe a little too much freedom to do some crazy things.
I’m thinking about the ceilings we all have hit at some point in time, either professionally or personally. Maybe it’s with our body im-
Not sure why God has a higher ceiling for some people than others. Maybe it was the voices we heard when we were young, or the norms society determined were doable and shaped so much by images we watched endlessly on TV. Turns out we are, in many cases, unfortunately programmed to believe in subconsciously created ceilings.
Some people are just naturally ceiling breakers. They make more money than we ever imagined. They create things we didn’t even think of. They simply don’t seem to have limits. I feel in my life I’ve definitely broken through a few ceilings. But they probably could’ve been pushed even higher, but I grew up in an era where humility was highly on the priority list. If you got too confident, someone knocked you down.
I’ll never forget my father, who I loved and admired for his incredible work ethic. In junior high school, I was vying for the city championship in track. I told my dad, “Tomorrow I’m gonna win the city championship.” My father, in a typical ’60s humble manner, replied, “OK Mr. Big Shot, we’ll see.” Well, the seed he unknowingly planted in my head sprung fruit, and it wasn’t very good fruit at that. I finished second in the sprints and fourth in the long jump. Bad news: the ceiling was established. Good news: I remember thinking to myself, “hopefully never again.”
So, what’s your ceiling breaking dream? Make a lot more money, lose a little more weight, or improve your golf score by 10 strokes? Be a better parent or grandparent?
whether you got what it takes, the answer is you do! Don’t forget that you were written off as a gritty area, left behind by the diminishing economics of the industrial revolution. For a period, we were America’s poster child of a failing region.
And wow, did we ever claw our way out and decimate that ceiling. Now, our major cities are better than we ever dreamed. Our American hockey league, Phantoms, play in an absolutely gorgeous, 10,000-seat PPL Center. Our Lehigh Valley name gets mentioned nationwide as the breathtaking Coca-Cola Park becomes a key piece of both major and minor-league baseball. And Bethlehem’s incredible Musikfest brings visitors from literally across the globe.
Yeah, while I was mounting tires on the assembly line of Mack Truck, both my community and I had real ceilings established by hard-working, well-intended Depression-era generations before us. But with a little bit of luck and an incredible amount of determination, we smashed the ceilings and crushed those inferior concepts.
And while our work isn’t done, we’re proud of what we’ve become, and we damn well should be. So, what do you say you Lehigh Valley warrior? Let’s go out and smash some ceilings. We didn’t do it to prove anybody wrong. We did it with fortitude passed on to us by incredibly dogged, hard-working parents and grandparents.
Yeah, we earned it every hard-working step of the way. And while it wasn’t in our pre-

It’s hard to believe September is here! As summer winds down, I’ve been reflecting on what a fun and fulfilling season it’s been for the Easton Area Chamber—and how much we have to look forward to. Our Easton and Phillipsburg Golf Outing in August was such a highlight. From our amazing partners to the laughter shared on the course, it was a beautiful reminder of the relationships we’ve built and the community we continue to grow. Thank you to everyone who made the day so special. Fall is shaping up to be full of connection, celebration, and community spirit. In October, we’ll come together for the 43rd Annual Easton Phillipsburg Halloween Parade—a beloved tradition that brings joy to so many. Then in No-
vember, we’ll head to the Simon Silk Mill for our Cocktail Trail, the perfect way to sip, stroll, and support our amazing local businesses. We’re also excited to welcome our Warren County Council members into the fold. Their work to grow businesses and strengthen communities like Phillipsburg and Belvidere continues to inspire. We’re proud to stand alongside them and support these efforts. As we strengthen regional partnerships and support new initiatives, I’m continually reminded of the heart that drives this Chamber. Serving as Chair this year continues to be a rewarding experience. The creativity, dedication, and care our members bring makes this all so special. I’m excited for all that’s ahead for us this fall.

GREATER NORTHAMPTON AREA CHAMBER
David Kerper, E. Schneider & Sons, Inc. Chair, Greater Northampton Area Chamber
I asked Siri, spoke to Alexa, and Googled what I should do on September 13th, and they all agreed that Northampton’s Uptown Street Fair is the place to be! This event highlights our great local businesses. Main Street will come alive with the vibrant energy of over 100 eclectic vendors, each bringing unique crafts, local treasures, and one-of-akind finds you simply won’t see anywhere else!
Arrive hungry—and thirsty! See Main Street transform into a foodie’s paradise, featuring more than 20 tempting food and spirit vendors. Savor everything from classic street fare to inventive bites and craft beverages while enjoying the festive atmosphere.
Best of all, admission is free and includes a great entertainment and activity lineup for both kids and adults, with our headliner being the super popular, high-energy dance band, Joyous. Bring
your loved ones, meet your neighbors, and celebrate the businesses and community spirit that make Northampton so special on Saturday, September 13th from 11 am-4 pm.
And the fun doesn’t end with the Street Fair. Watch for more wonderful events throughout the year, such as our annual free movie at the historic Roxy in December. Admission is “free”—we simply ask attendees to bring a non-perishable food item to help restock the shelves at the Northampton Food Bank. It’s a small gift that makes a big difference.
A heartfelt thank you to all the dedicated volunteers and sponsors who make these cherished Northampton traditions possible. Interested in joining our small but mighty team? We'd love to have you! Reach out to me at dkerper@ verizon.net or connect with any Chamber team member.

Cut costs, not care.
Capitalize on smart strategies to manage your company’s rising healthcare expenses. Download our guide to learn what’s driving them – and how to take control.
Value-Based Healthcare Can Lower Costs, Improve Outcomes
In America’s healthcare system, doctors and hospitals treat patients and health insurers help pay for those medical services. Sounds simple, right?
But the simplicity of this arrangement – commonly called “fee-forservice” – typically means healthcare providers are paid based primarily on the volume of tests, treatments, procedures, and other services, regardless of the outcome for the patient. Historically, the fee-for-service model typically lacked any connection to quality health outcomes or patient satisfaction.
Fortunately for patients, payment arrangements are evolving to reward healthcare providers for measures that had been missing from the equation – quality, satisfaction, and appropriate cost. These alternative payment models are often called “value-based care.”
Today, about 60% of healthcare payments are associated with or impacted by a value-based model. Capital Blue Cross advocates for and uses value-based models with providers, rewarding them based on how much they help patients improve their health, while using data-driven decisions to continually improve care.
“Value-based care emphasizes getting the right care at the right place at the right time,” said Dr. Jeremy Wigginton, Chief Medical Officer at Capital Blue Cross. “It gives healthcare providers incentive to put patient satisfaction and quality of care ahead of quantity of care, which tends to drive better health outcomes at a lower cost.”
Capital Blue Cross is a leader in value-based arrangements. In 2011, it was the first insurer in its market to introduce Accountable Care Arrangements (ACAs), which hold primary care physicians (PCPs) accountable for providing high-quality care to members. In addition to ACAs, Capital has other PCP value-based arrangements under the QualityFirst umbrella, including Medical Neighborhoods and the Primary Care Recognition Program.
In 2015, the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association (BCBSA) introduced Blue Distinction Total Care (BDTC), linking local Blue Plan’s value-based programs, like our ACAs, across the country. This allows Blues members to receive high-quality care wherever they live. Capital also has partnered with regional health systems like UPMC and the Lehigh Valley Health Network to create value-based arrangements. Employers are starting to take notice of the benefits of a value-based payment model – including healthier employees and fewer missed work days. About a third of employers said they were integrating value-based care into their employer-sponsored insurance, according to a 2024 survey. Healthcare outcomes are proving value-based care’s impact. Walmart reported that employees with diabetes saw a 24% reduction on average in HbA1c levels and an 11% drop in total cost of care using a value-based care model. Boeing said spending for participants decreased by 14%, and emergency room utilization dropped 11% when it moved to value-based care.
Capitalizing on Value-based Care
“The need for value-based care models will continue growing as more employers become aware of the potential to keep their workforce healthy while holding costs down for both their employees and their businesses,” said Dr. Wigginton. If your business has concerns about healthcare spending and you want to find the best ways to keep ahead of costs, schedule a health insurance check-up with us. Capital Blue Cross can help you capitalize on the many tools and strategies.

American Bank Incorporated (OTCID: AMBK), the parent company of American Bank, today announced earnings for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2025. Net income for the quarter was $4,185,000, or $0.65 per diluted share, an increase of $1.9 million or 80.5% from $2,319,000, or $0.36 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2024. The increase in net income for the quarter was attributable to increases in net interest income and non-interest income and a release of the allowance for credit losses, offset by an increase in non-interest expense. The release was primarily the result of a decrease in non-performing loans and macro-economic factors considered in the forecasting and qualitative components of the Company’s determination of the allowance for credit losses. The Company did not experience deterioration in asset quality during the quarter as total non-accruing loans as a percentage of total loans decreased to 0% at June 30, 2025, compared to 0.43% at June 30, 2024.
