The Chemung River is the convergence of three rivers that eventually go on to connect to one of the most important watersheds in our region. And like these systems of natural beauty, TEDxChemungRiver will be the convergence of intellectual thought and creativity from which the attendees will have an extraordinary opportunity to share ideas with other thoughtful minds in our small, yet vibrant, community. TEDx is truly about "Ideas Worth Spreading".

Thanksgiving is not the only time to acknowledge the blessings in our life or to express gratitude. As we move into the holiday season, consider the power of the magic words "thank you."

In this deceptively simple 3-minute talk, Dr. Laura Trice muses on the power of the magic words "thank you" -- to deepen a friendship, to repair a bond, to make sure another person knows what they mean to you. Try it.

A Giving Garden found its perfect home at the Ithaca Children's Garden. The ICG is a one-of-a-kind, hands-on space where children and adults can interact with nature.

The theme of the TEDxChemungRiver 2016 event was "It Connects Us." Accordingly, 20 Giving Gardens, created collaboratively by event participants, recognize the positive contributions that local organizations make to our communities.

At the TEDxChemungRiver 2016 event, participants partook in the creation of 20 Giving Gardens, which were distributed to 20 local organizations and businesses that make a positive difference in their respective communities.

Over the following weeks, we will highlight those institutions that are so deserving of this small token of appreciation for all that they contribute to their communities.

Our first Giving Garden was graciously accepted by the National Soaring Museum in Elmira. The museum, located in the "Soaring Capital of America," provides educational enrichment in history and science for children and families alike. On behalf of the TEDxChemungRiver team and event participants, we would like to extend a warm congratulations to the National Soaring Museum.

You may have heard of TED talks--they're short segments where speakers talk about technology, entertainment and design. But what you might not know is that we have a local organization called TEDxChemungRiver.

TEDxChemingRiver 2016 was a success! Hats off to our speakers and performers, whose talks were riveting. And, of course, a huge thank-you goes out to our participants, whose energy and enthusiasm was palpable. Finally, our event wouldn't have been made possible without the dedication and hard work of our volunteers.

Stay tuned for photos, as well as a link where you can check out this year's talks.
