From the President:

Informing and Attracting Visitors and Future Residents

T

he Four Flags Area Chamber of Commerce is the “front door” to the community. One of the many important jobs the Chamber has undertaken is welcoming newcomers, visitors, and fielding inquiries.

The Chamber offers a library of directories, reports, surveys, maps, tourist and travel folders, and calendars of functions and events to help newcomers and visitors alike understand our inviting and prosperous community.

Many visitors stop in the Chamber’s office to find out about local businesses or new sites for industrial development.

The Chamber is a resource for community members as well as a liaison to help those interested in our community obtain the proper information.

To help initiate the desire for inquiry, the Chamber provides a free web page for all business members, which is connected to the Chamber’s website. Here patrons can access complex information about the business environment and our community.

The Chamber serves the city of Niles and the surrounding communities. One of the Chamber’s primary goals is community development.

We focus on the development of in-

dustry and trade, the handling of civic activities, publicity, and public relations and marketing for the community. The variety and scope of these activities are virtually unlimited.

Bringing Joy to the Community The Chamber is an organization that is always willing to bring a little extra joy to the community.

Every year the Chamber presents one of the finest fireworks shows in the area.

We have enhanced this family festival to include live music and a fun fair for all to enjoy while they wait for the big show.

For a small town, the Chamber’s fireworks show attracts visitors from miles around that gather at the fair-grounds each year to see this spectacle of light.

We have hosted Santa at the Riverfront Amphitheater in November for the past 30 years.

We work with local organizations to enhance the events already offered in the community.

In 2014, we will host our first ever Health and Wellness Summit on May 30 featuring our local wellness advocates.

We will once again host our Exposing Greatness Expo showcasing members of

the Four Flags Area Chamber of Commerce, The Buchanan Chamber and the Southwest Michigan Economic Growth Alliance on June 12, 2014, at Buchanan High School. Our first ever Craft Brew and Wine Festival will be held on July 25, 2014, featuring local wines and craft brews. More events can be found at www.nilesmi.com. Come discover all that Niles has to offer!

Downtown Development: Uncover Niles MAIN STREET The Dawn of Downtown Niles

D

owntown Niles was founded with several small wooden buildings along the flatland adjacent to the St. Joseph River. As the business district developed, the wooden structures were replaced with more fireproof brick buildings.

Soon came electric lights, cobblestone roads and brick sidewalks. Many of the buildings standing in downtown Niles today are representative of the business life from long ago.

Thriving Downtown The Main Street business corridor provides businesses with a wonderful place to serve their patrons. The downtown offers businesses a variety of buildings in all shapes and sizes with plenty of ample, free parking.

The Main Street corridor receives a traffic count of 11,000 vehicles per day.

Front Street, which faces the picturesque St. Joseph River, receives a traffic count of 9,500 per day.

To help make downtown Niles a prosperous, safe and beautiful area to work and play, the City of Niles Downtown Development Authority (DDA) was established June 11, 1979. Its duty to the city is to enhance the quality of life through economic and physical revitalization of the Niles downtown business district.

The Niles Downtown Development Authority continues to encourage growth for businesses and citizens.

Businesses have plenty of exposure to patrons as they drive to work, school and home or toward destinations on all points of the compass.

Summer Sounds and Laughter The Niles Amphitheater has been an

important addition to the downtown.

Built in 1994, the Amphitheater provides the city with a place for summer concerts, school plays and recitals, and is the center for summer festival activities including the Craft Brew and Wine Fest on July 25, 2014.

There are weekly concerts during the summer with local bands, jazz and blues, and symphonies. A car show downtown can be enjoyed every Wednesday evening hosted by the Kar Club. The Niles Burn Run is a bikers paradise in July.

Enjoy a Sunday afternoon stroll along the beautiful Riverwalk. Or a morning jog along over 5 miles of riverfront may be what you need to start your day.

The Riverwalk is a wondrous place at all times of the day. Peaceful in the morning and romantic in the evenings, the Riverfront Park is the best place for exercise, fishing, or an evening with your family. Be Healthy Berrien worked to install fitness stations throughout the park in 2013. There are paved lighted paths, picnic areas, benches to relax on and a dock to moor boats.

Our area offers four seasons that provide residents and visitors of every age with indoor and outdoor activities yearround.

The Four Flags Area offers fishermen a multitude of inland lakes and rivers that include some world-class fishing for salmon and steelhead. From hunting for trophy white-tail deer in the fall, to snowmobiling hundreds of miles of trails every winter, to canoeing, hiking, and enjoying nature in one of the many nature preserves that dot our area, recreational opportunities abound in the Four Flags Area.

The City of Niles alone is responsible for over 200 acres of public parks for visitors and residents to picnic and enjoy.

Niles Township has more than 43 square miles of countryside and county parks.

The Four Flags Area offers fun and relaxation for the entire family with a hint of Americana from bygone years.

Tourism & Recreation: A destination or way of life History of the Four Flags Area

M

ore than three hundred years ago, the first European visitors arrived in this area which had been home to the Potawatomi Indians for two thousand years.

The Potowatomi wintered in the enclosed river valley and summered near the cool breezes of Lake Michigan. The early European explorers called this amazing river valley “Paradise on Earth.”

The Four Flags Area is the oldest European settlement in lower Michigan and provides rich harvests of fruits, vegetables, fish, and game, which continues to attract those interested in natural beauty and a slower-paced respite from the big city life.

A Tradition Rich in Agriculture and more The sandy clay soil and cool temperate breezes from nearby Lake Michigan makes the Four Flags Area similar in climate to the great vineyards of France and Germany. This area is home to many award-winning wineries.

All offer winery tours, wine tastings, and breathtaking views of thousands of acres of vineyards.

The ideal growing climate also aids area fruit and vegetable farmers, who harvest a rich bounty from spring to late fall. You can taste the freshness yourself at many local fruit stands and farm markets. There are also numerous

U-Pick farms in the area at which you can gather your own apples, peaches, pumpkins, strawberries, and cherries.

Several of these farms have added unique attractions for the whole family.

Niles hosts a French Market on Thursdays and you can find many other local farmers markets in the area.

In September and October, the Niles Haunted House features costumed Halloween characters and ghouls of all types. In service over 40 years, this is a nationally-acclaimed attraction in the Greater Niles community.

Antique hunters flock to Niles and surrounding towns to search for bygone items from china and glassware to furniture and linens. Niles is home to a myriad of antique stores and malls, all close enough and large enough for you to plan a weekend of antiquing.

The Niles Train Depot, built in 1892,

is listed on the state and federal “Registries of Historic Places.” Featured in three movies, the Depot is open daily with eight passenger trains serving the Niles Amtrak station providing service between Chicago, Detroit and Toronto.

Museums The Four Flags Area’s diverse heritage is reflected in the community’s museums, which make for both educational and fun family outings.

The Fort St. Joseph Museum in Niles is housed in the carriage house of the historic Henry A. Chapin mansion and features a large display of Potowatomi and Plains Indian artifacts, French and English period firearms and 18th and 19th Century cooking utensils. The museum commemorates the fort, a French military post built on the St. Joseph River in the late 1600s.
