DECEMBER 2017 - OBWA NETWORKING & DINNER MEETING
 The Orillia Business Women’s Association (OBWA) meets every second Wednesday of the Month (September thru June) at the Best Western Mariposa INN and Conference Centre at 400 Memorial Ave. Orillia for Networking, Fun, Food and to hear a wonderful Guest Speaker.
OBWA PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
We are soon going to say goodbye to 2017. I hope your year has been filled with laughter, fun, business growth and challenges. I added challenges because if we aren’t challenged we become stagnant. Changes and challenges aren’t always fun but sometimes we need to throw caution to the wind and try new things and re-invent old things. That is what we have been doing within the OBWA for the benefit of the group and for each one of us. It has been a fun but very busy year for the Executive Committee as we work on making this group better and bigger. The dinner meetings continue to be a fun and relaxing ladies night out. We hope the networking is proving to be a worthwhile time to do “business” and that the speakers, besides being interesting, are providing you with some information to assist you in your business or home life. As always we love your feedback and take your comments to heart. Hopefully, you are happy with the changes and improvements. If not, let us know! The food has been so amazingly delicious and the culinary staff has gone way beyond what is required of them to make our nights special. And on that note, I want to wish each one of you special women a very Merry Christmas and I look forward to a spectacular 2018 with the Orillia Business Women’s Association.
Yours in friendship and business,
Shelle Hossack
