Chairperson’s Message by AnDee Harris
Greetings! As I am writing this message it’s hard to believe we are already in the month of November and we are still having gorgeous weather! I hope this great weather has afforded you time to complete your remodel projects before the snow starts flying! I also hope you were able to visit and support your fellow HBAL members during the Fall Parade of Homes. Thank you to all of you who attended the October meeting which was held at the recently expanded and remodeled HBAL office. We had a wonderful turnout! We were able to view before and after photos along with taking a tour of the space. Members are able to utilize this new space for meetings with clients, training for employees or other meetings that arise that you have need of a conference room. If you have not had a chance to see the new office space, please stop by as the HBAL staff welcomes the opportunity to show it to you! The next meeting will be November 12, 2014. Tammie Lang with Southeast Community College will be giving a presentation about business ethics. Please plan to join us! I would like to say thanks for everyone’s support and I look forward to seeing you at an upcoming event!
