Dear Members,

April was a great month for our chapters - Most of our chapters grew, the Thank You For Closed Business is going up, and the Regional collaborations are at an all time high. How exciting!

Our newest chapter in the region - BNI Power Partners, has been growing and is now leading the region! Well done!

Special Shoutout to the Leaders in BNI Capital Business Alliance: Daniel Garedew, Ann Brennan, Brian Loebig, and Frank Goodman - who attended the BNI National Convention last week in Las Vegas. Ask them what they thought.

The BNI International Convention is in Hawaii in November.....

Kudos for creating $1,313,517.00 in Thank You for Closed Business in May 2024. A special thank you to the biggest givers in the region: 

Thank you to all who sponsored new members in the month of April! Sponsoring a new member is an opportunity to help another business owner to grow their business and develop. Inviting them to BNI can be the biggest gift that you can give.
