BIP of Palmer

BIP of Palmer BIP of Palmer focuses on our local community, working to build a stronger tomorrow for Palmer Township as well as itโ€™s surrounding areas.

The Palmer Business, Industrial and Professional Association is here to help promote the climate of commerce in Palmer Township and serve the welfare of the community as a whole. We do so by increasing the role of township officials and staff within the organization, initiating bimonthly, locally focused membership programs, increasing the use of electronic communications to promote and market mem

bers' companies and the township, and increasing the association's involvement in key community activities. The BIP is unique as a local business organization because it allows its members to become better acquainted and have direct communication with elected and/or appointed officials. This occurs at bimonthly meetings at local restaurants and at Association sponsored mixers held at our members' facilities. The meetings facilitate a better understanding of business, government and community issues in Palmer Township.

๐Ÿ’šSupporting Cleaner, Safer Trails: New Dog Waste Station at Schoeneck Creek

The BIP of Palmer has installed another dog waste station at the trailhead of the Schoeneck Creek bike path off Corriere Road. This is the 11th dog waste station installed by the BIP along the multiuse paths at the Lehigh River, Schoeneck and Bushkill Creeks.

The BIP also contributes 50% of the cost of yearly maintenance and replenishment of waste bags.
Dog waste stations along Palmer Township bike paths are essential for public health, environmental protection, and community enjoyment providing convenient disposal options, reducing the spread of harmful bacteria and parasites, prevents nutrient-rich pet waste from contaminating stormwater and local waterways, while keeping paths clean and safe for cyclists, pedestrians, and children.
The visible, well-maintained stations also encourage responsible pet ownership and demonstrate municipal commitment to shared public spaces, which can improve user experience, and foster neighborhood pride in a cleaner, more welcoming trail network.

Happy Trails, Happy Tails! ๐Ÿ•

Yesterdayโ€™s BIP of Palmer Quarterly Lunch at the Marblehead Chowder House was nothing short of impactful. A huge thank you to our incredible speaker, Nate Kline of MCIT, for delivering an insightful and forward-thinking presentation on โ€œAI and the Workplace.โ€
From understanding which roles are most vulnerable to AI, to identifying where AI can enhance rather than replace talent, this session challenged us to think differently and more strategically about the future of our businesses.
Key takeaway? AI isnโ€™t just comingโ€ฆ itโ€™s already here. The real opportunity lies in how we choose to adapt, lead, and innovate alongside it.
We are proud to be part of a community of leaders who are committed to learning, evolving, and making smart moves for the future. ๐Ÿ’ก
If you missed this one, you definitely missed a powerful conversation but donโ€™t worry, weโ€™re just getting started.

ICYMI full video presentation will be available to our members soon.
