at the Harborside Convention Center on March 14th was a success and a lot of fun as well. Janet Sheehan and her staff did an exceptional job coordinating the event . . . their take on "How Much Do You Know About Contracting with the County" game in order to win a prize was such a clever idea!
The event was FREE to the public . . . more than 500 attended with approximately 30 + minority small business entrepreneurs taking advantage of this great matchmaking opportunity. Besides the free continental breakfast and yummy hot lunch . . . the vendors outdid themselves - this year's freebees were outstanding!
A special "Thank You" to Dan Luft and Teri Burleigh, Compass Construction; Beth Spiller and Patricia Rutter, Target Builders, Inc.; Susan Weite and Debbie Gaskin, The Chris-Tel Company; Julio Rodriguez, DBE Manager-Port Authority, and Cindy Logan and her staff, Lee County Contracts and Management for their participation.
