A Little Luck, A Lot of Fun 🎰

At BNI, we take business seriously, but we also know how to have a little fun along the way.

Each week, we keep things exciting with our chapter jackpot, bringing a little Vegas style energy into our meetings. It is a fun way to celebrate consistency, engagement, and showing up for one another.

And this time, luck was on Leah’s side. She hit the jackpot and took home the win! 🎉

Moments like these are a reminder that our chapter is more than just business. It is about building relationships, celebrating each other, and creating an environment people genuinely enjoy being part of.

Come for the referrals, stay for the community and maybe even a little luck 😉

🥃 Business Meets Whiskey 🥃

Our BNI chapter took networking to a whole new level!

We had the incredible opportunity to visit High Mark Distillery, where we did more than just learn about whiskey. We created our own. From selecting flavors to blending and bottling, it was a hands on experience that brought our group together in a unique and memorable way.

Moments like these remind us that business is built on relationships. When you take the time to connect, collaborate, and share experiences outside of the usual setting, those relationships only grow stronger.

A huge thank you to High Mark Distillery for hosting us and giving us a behind the scenes look at the craft, passion, and precision that goes into every bottle.

Here is to building business, building friendships, and maybe a little whiskey too. 🥂
