SHOW CASE YOUR BUSINESS
In lieu of general membership meetings as we’ve done in past years, we are giving members the opportunity to showcase their business or host a meet and greet. We will be meeting in November 2011 and January-May 2012. We usually try to meet on the 3rd Tuesday of the month, however, we can schedule for another date if more convenient for you. If you would be willing to sponsor a meeting at your office or business location, please contact Belinda.
