Meet Kevin Hyms, Past President of the Ronkonkoma Chamber of Commerce, in this latest feature of “3 Questions With.”
🔹 What do you love most about your community?
What I love most about our community is the perfect balance of small town charm and convenience. Lake Ronkonkoma offers beautiful scenery and a welcoming atmosphere, while our location provides easy access to major highways, the train station and the airport. It’s a place where you can enjoy a peaceful neighborhood feel without being far from everything you need.
🔹 What are some of your chamber's initiatives or programs that you are most proud of?
We’re especially proud of the downtown revitalization grant and the current sewer study because both reflect our commitment to Ronkonkoma’s future. We’re always looking for meaningful ways to invest in our community and its infrastructure, support responsible growth, and encourage long-term economic development. Ronkonkoma continues to be an attractive, vibrant, and welcoming place for residents, visitors, and local businesses.
🔹 What does being a member of the Suffolk County Alliance of Chambers mean to you?
This is a great venue to interact with many of the Chambers of Commerce from Suffolk County and keep updated on business programs and incentives.
