Thanks!!

I just wanted to take this oppurtunity to thank  Carol and Summer and all their helpers for doing such a wonderful job on the Military  Connections Networking for a Cause Event.  It was well attended.  I also, wanted to comment that I was at the event and had a booth. Through Networking that night I was referred a huge Mortgage for the Sharpsburg Branch of Northwest Savings Bank.  Networking Events do work :)
