Hosted by the Huron Small Business Enterprise Centre, once again it will be held at the White Carnation Banquet hall in Holmesville, with social time at 6 pm and dinner at 6:30. The objective of the evening is networking (obviously!). During dinner, those donating door prizes, and those winning them, each have an opportunity to give a one -minute advertisement of their business/career ...that eleva- tor speech! At the end of the even- ing, the grand prize will be won by a contest challenging your mem- ory of those businesses. Come and see how it works. You might be the lucky winner! This is going to be an exciting and informative evening, with Lisa Houthuyzen sharing tips and tricks on how to feel com- fortable speaking to groups of people large or small. Lisa has been active in Toastmasters for several years and commented that "We all present ourselves. The minute we leave our homes we are "On" so to speak." She feels that, as women, we face additional challenges when "presenting" ourselves and what we have to say. She will address do's and don'ts of public speak- ing, as well as how to combat the challenges that women face. Lastly she will discuss how to enjoy getting up to speak to peo- ple in public. At $30 per person, which includes HST, this is a network- ing opportunity you can't afford to miss. -Bring along your busi- ness cards and brochures and don't forget we appreciate donated door prizes. Make this an opportunity to promote your business to other like-minded women. If you aren't currently in business, this is an opportu- nity to find out who is and what they do. With 50 to 60 women all interested in business, this is always an entertaining evening. Feel free to pass the word and bring a friend BUT please make sure that they are registered! Pre -registration is required so we can confirm dinner num- bers. If you register and end up unable to attend, please let us know well in advance.
