Members of the TriCities Business Association enjoy a number of benefits that help market their businesses to the thousands of tourists who visit our region each year.
All TCBA members can take advantage of the Association brochure racks, placed in strategic locations around the Copper Basin. Provide a supply of your advertising material, and the TCBA does the work for you, stocking the ten brochure racks weekly during peak season, to make sure your message is prominently displayed.
Membership in the TriCities Business Association also includes placement on our popular tourism website, www.ocoeeinfo.com, a key source of information about accommodations, dining, shopping and other amenities in the Copper Basin. Your webpage listing can include a paragraph describing your business, and a link to your own website, at no charge. Unlike many other tourism websites, there is no charge for referrals from the TCBA site.
Your membership also entitles your business to a free listing on the Walking Map of McCaysville and Copperhill produced by the TCBA. More than 40,000 copies of this handy guide are given free each year to passengers of the Blue Ridge Scenic Railway, with thousands more distributed through our brochure racks and at the Fannin County Welcome Center.
You can increase the value of your membership, by choosing to upgrade to a corporate membership.
Copper Members have their businesses featured in bold type on the Walking Map.
Silver and Gold Members receive special mention on the map's front page.
Platinum Membership earns placement on your company logo on the TCBA website home page and the Walking Map.
Platinum members are also listed on all press releases, posters, advertisements and other printed materials as
co-sponsors of all events presented by the TCBA.
Regardless of your membership level, your membership reflects your commitment to our community, and support for the 4th of July Fireworks and other festivals and events conducted by the TCBA each year.
Individual Membership - (non-business) $50.00
Please feel free join us at any of our monthly membership meetings, held the last Monday of each month. The location varies each month, so please check our home page for more details of each meeting.
