Our Next Meeting - 
October 6 at Mission Hill Church

Next week, our presenter is our club's own Harry Burkholder and Benjamin Marentette. Harry and Benjamin will be providing information on TIF, how it is a funding tool for the city, and administered by the DDA. They will also walk us through on what's included in the upcoming plan. 


This week, we welcomed our newest member, who you might already know, Laura Oblinger! Laura is the director of client success and growth at Rehmann. We are excited to welcome her back!
 
 
Our big 50\50 winner was Mack Beers!
 
Our Presenter was Rachel Johnson from Cherryland Electric. Rachel gave a great presentation on electricity, the power grid, and how the future needs of electricity are evolving.
 
See you at our next one!
