Can you help 'staff' the BBG Booth??
The Calvert Collaborative for Children and Youth (CCCY) will celebrate Calvert County being named one of "100 Best Communities for Young People in 2012", on Tues., Jan. 8, 2013, from 6:30 - 8:30 p.m., at North Beach Town Hall. Jordan LaPier of America's Promise Alliance, will present an award in honor of the organizations and businesses in the Twin Beaches that contribute to the well-being of young people. ING presents this yearly award to communities where young people can learn, grow, and thrive.
Organizations can showcase their work by setting up information booths, so the BBG will get a booth at this event. Please email Diane at president@BayBusinessGroup.org if you'd like to help "staff" it and hand out info!
