Dressed in authentic Dutch attire, Lynden's official ambassadors Virgi Diephuis and Ada Voskuilen greet new residents to the area with a complimentary gift basket laden with local goodies, coupons for free products and services, and information from Lynden Chamber of Commerce members. Newcomers are contacted through referrals from realtors, neighbors, businesses, churches and friends. The pair polls newcomers about their relocations to Lynden.
The major reasons for relocating to Lynden are: jobs, lack of crime, clean air, proximity to golf courses, schools, Lynden values, civic pride and availability of goods and services.
