That's basically what it's come to.  There's a competition possibly coming amongst seven upstate NY regions.  The winner is getting big time money.

 

According to a blog on the TimesUnion.com website,  there is a competition going on from the Regional Economic Development Council of NY.  There is $1.5 BILLION dollars at stake to spur job creation.

According to the article, here are the eligible regions:

Mid-Hudson,

Capital Region,

Mohawk Valley,

Central New York,

North Country,

Southern Tier and Finger Lakes.

There will be a total of 3 winners, each getting $500 million dollars.

So what do we have to do to win?  Maybe we should have a jingle created to convince them to choose us.  ( I wonder who we can get to write that?  Hmmmmmmmm)
