It Was Standing Room Only at BNN!
BNN (Business Networking for the Now ) is a time when we come together each month to network, build lasting relationships, and have a lot of fun along the way. Each gathering brings new opportunities, fresh experiences, and exposure to a new story within our community. Today's guest speaker delivered a presentation that had everyone on the edge of their seats, eagerly anticipating what's to come.
During our power hour together, our community gathered for a special presentation featuring Walking in a Winter Wonderland, presented by Bridge Bedford’s own Brian Crews. Brian gave us an exciting preview of the holiday magic coming to Bedford County this season. And of course, it wouldn't be BNN without networking! Attendees heard from local businesses, nonprofits, and community organizations as they delivered their 60-second pitches…..sharing their passion and purpose.
With a packed room and plenty of enthusiasm, Brian began sharing details about the attractions, experiences, and festive magic that will soon become part of holiday traditions for families throughout our community and beyond. From dazzling lights to memorable family experiences, this inaugural event promises to create lasting memories for visitors of all ages.
Walking in a Winter Wonderland from November 21 through January 2 - the lights will shine, families will gather, and a new Bedford County tradition will come to life.

Whether you're a large business, a small business, nonprofit organization, church, civic club, or community group, there's a place for you to be part of something special. As Brian shared today, this event is expected to draw thousands of visitors from across our region, creating a unique opportunity for sponsors to gain significant visibility while helping make this community celebration possible.
One opportunity that particularly caught our attention is the — Barn Sponsorship. These sponsored barns will be a showcased attraction, providing businesses and organizations with tremendous exposure in a fun, memorable, and highly visible way. It's a cost-effective investment that allows you to be part of the very first year of what is sure to become a beloved Bedford County tradition.
Years from now, when Walking in a Winter Wonderland has become a holiday staple, you'll be able to say, "We were part of the magic before the lights ever turned on."
