January Networking Breakfast

The Palm City Chamber of Commerce Networking

Breakfast for January was held at Piper’s Landing Yacht and Country Club. Our guests were treated to a spectacular spread of breakfast foods including bacon, eggs, sausage, fruit, and pastries. We always know we’ll have a fabulous breakfast when we’re at Piper’s Landing. Our first speaker was Rebeca Beckett with HJ Sims. Rebecca is a Certified Financial Planner and sponsor of our Women in Business summits. Rebecca reminded us to prepare our finances for today and to plan for the future. The current inflation rate is staggering, and many families are not prepared. It may be time to sit down with her to get your finances in order. Rebecca even teased us about auctioning off a dozen eggs!! You can reach out to Rebecca at 561-620-2173.

Carolyn Leibowitz with Cruise Planners was our second speaker for the morning. Carolyn highlighted their upcoming Travel Expo 23 which occurred on February 4th. Travel is back and Carolyn can assist you with any land or sea vacations. She is very efficient, knowledgeable, and easy to work with as you plan your holiday away. Feel free to contact her at 772-600-7409.

We had several honored 2 and 4 legged guests at the breakfast. We invited local Martin County Sheriff Department Deputies and their K-9 friends, Remi and Patches. They stole the show and our hearts. Thank you for your service.

We would like to highlight our President’s Council Member Laura Barbone with Aycock Funeral Homes and Dignity Memorial. People expect to plan ahead for bit purchases like weddings, homes, cars, education, vacations. A funeral or cremation should be no different. You give your family peace of mind and keep them from unnecessary financial and emotional burdens when you have a plan in place. When you are ready to be prepared contact Laura at 772-287-1717 or laura.barbone@ dignitymemorial.com
