We encourage all of our members to come to event wearing your favorite team attire -  jerseys, jackets and hats! Special prizes are planned for "super" fans who dress to the hilt. This will be a fun theme night to be involved with as a sponsor too!

For only $150 you will be provided a table for display, you will have microphone time, you will be included in the pre-event publicity receive 5 admission passes. Just imagine the fun your team could have dressing up for this (maybe in referee shirts?) If business is involved with sports or team attire, a sponsorship of this event is perfect for you. Team Harbor/Brenn Agencies has already signed on as a sponsor. Call Lisa to learn more 347-4150.

Register today for May 20 Connecting Women in Business Luncheon.

In May 2011, the Headlands became the 9th International Dark Sky Park in the world and just the 6^th in Michigan! The Headlands is an Emmet County owned and operated park in Mackinaw City, and since receiving this prestigious designation our region has received international attention for the county's dedication to protecting the night sky.

Mary Stewart Adams, who has risen to international recognition for the unique programs she guides at the Headlands, will be the featured presenter.  "Our programs are based on the celestial phenomena happening each month, which makes for dynamic programming because the sky is always changing. Further, because the sky has been studied by every age and culture of human beings throughout history, we have very rich resources, both cultural and scientific, from which to draw. This makes for some really great programming opportunities that always include educating guests about how to mitigate light pollution in their own areas."

Registration and networking begin at 11:30 am. The lunch and presentation will begin at noon and end at 1 pm. Cost is $15 for CWIB members or $20 for not-yet-members. Register online here (http://petoskey.chambermaster.com/events/details/cwib-luncheon-may-20-2014-1785)
