                                Theme for 2012 - 2013!

As we begin our 3rd year as an outstanding small business network, we have generated a theme for this coming year....Survive To Thrive!  We will be focusing our educational speakers, events, member presentations, and round table discussions, all around this theme....to help each member move from just the "survival" mode of doing business, to the actuality of "THRIVING" and having renewed success!

We are excited about out ROUND TABLE discussions! Sharing our personal journey and experience, benefits all of the members. The group support is invaluable. Join us for our next topic
"Do what you Love, and the money will follow".

Consider visiting if you are a business owner catering to children and their families! We encourage diversity and we feel we have a uniqe blend of goods and services offered by our members.  Bring a guest and enjoy the networking opportunities of the evening. Connect and share ideas with a truely talented and passionate membership!
