Ray Isaac's 6 E's of Success
Thursday March 12th
7:00am - 8:30am

The Penfield Business Association welcomes Ray Isaac, third generation president of Isaac Heating & Air Conditioning, for a educational and motivating breakfast meeting.

 Business of the Month Committee seeks storytellers and
wannabe reporters
The work of the PBA is accomplished through the dedication and hard work of committees formed to manage different projects throughout the year. As with all volunteer organizations, our success depends largely on the willingness of our membership to participate on these committees and make things happen.
The Business of the Month Committee could use your help! They are specifically looking for people with excellent writing skills who can tell our members' story with interest and finesse. A portion of the work of this committee involves interviewing potential Business of the Month businesses to learn more about them.
Here's the "Official Description" of the Business of the Month Committee:
"Reviews nominations, selects a business to be recognized each month, contacts and interviews the business, and writes the business summary for the website, local media, and newsletter. Prepares the award certificate and manages the outdoor signage."
If you would like to volunteer to work on the Business of the Month committee and share your time and talent with your community, contact us and we will connect you with the Committee Chair.
