Giving Back to the Community that Supports Us.
We have a responsibility not just to customers and employees, but also to our community.
Offering much more than simple monetary donations, an organization's depth of character can be judged by
its commitment to, and involvement in, the community. At CobbleSoft, we continue to
participate at all levels, and the following are a few of the ways we're helping to make a difference: |

| Health and Tourism in the Finger Lakes |
PhelpsNY.com |
Nature's Health Club® is a unique initiative, formed in March 2004 from an
alliance between New York's Finger Lakes Ontario County Tourism and Public Health departments, and
the medical profession, represented by Finger Lakes Health, Thompson Health and Clifton
Springs Hospital.
When CobbleSoft learned of this initiative to promote health and fight obesity through
active tourism, it was a cause we immediately supported. Working with the alliance,
CobbleSoft is providing the technology and assisting with content development for this
Travel Industry of America
national pilot program. |
PhelpsNY.com is the result of a $20,000 community donation by CobbleSoft.
In August of 2003, CobbleSoft offered to design and develop the community web site for free.
The offer was accepted by the Chamber of Commerce, and subsequently received backing from
the Town and the Village of Phelps as their official web site.
Launched with the help of other chamber members in March 2004,
www.PhelpsNY.com had over 180,000 hits
in the first 10 weeks, catering to business, tourism, and from kids to seniors. CobbleSoft currently
also contracts to maintain the site.

Phelps Sauerkraut Festival |
Phelps Chamber of Commerce |
CobbleSoft is a major sponsor of the annual Phelps Sauerkraut Festival and also contributes services
as WebMaster for their website. The festival, featured on TV by the Food Network's
America's Top 10 Festivals, draws crowds from all over the USA.
Originally held for the infamous Silver Floss Sauerkraut brand, the festival is
the community's biggest event of the year, attended by 30,000 people, with all proceeds benefiting local projects.
|
Through our President, CobbleSoft has held the presidency of the Phelps Chamber of Commerce for 2005 and 2006,
while our CEO actively serves as a Director of the Board.
In addition to supporting and promoting local businesses, the Chamber is a
proponent of community activity, annually raising many thousands of dollars for the
benefit of local projects.

Phelps Sesquicentennial Celebrations |
Local Initiatives |
|
The Village of Phelps celebrated 150 years in 2005, with events throughout
the year. CobbleSoft, both as an active member of the community and webmaster for
PhelpsNY.com (the community web site), participated in fund raising and organization.
|
CobbleSoft is an active member of committees that have goals of improving the quality
of life in the community. Recent participation includes the "Downtown
Committee", established to develop strategies and recommendations for renovating
the historical downtown area of the Village of Phelps.
