Last week we had to shake things up, as the Mayor's schedule changed, and we found out about 20 minutes before the meeting started. We worked it out, however, and filled up our time. I'd like to thank Howard Caplan, our spotlight speaker from Lewis, Longman and Walker, P.A. After some encouragement, Howard took some extra time with his spotlight to go into details on trademark and copyright law, and there were many questions answered.
We had our Social at the Southside Women's Club on Thursday, and attendees got a good indication of what all the buzz is about. It is a beautiful building, and there are enormous possibilities. I'd like to thank the Past Presidents for the food and refreshments provided, and also 3rd Vice President Patrick Heatherington for giving a good detailed synopsis of our thoughts as we prepare to move forward in a partnership with the ladies from Southside Women's Club.
This week our guest speaker will be Ellen Leroy-Reed from One Spark. There has been SO much talk about this major event that occurred this year in Jacksonville, and how it has ballooned into an event the city will be proud of. Have a great week everyone, and I hope to see you Wednesday.
