Please join us at the monthly meeting of SSWBA.  PLEASE NOTE THE NEW LOCATION.  
 
To help ensure that businesses further west can attend, we have moved the meeting to a more central location on the corridor.  We would also like to host the meetings at other business locations, so if you have space (and chairs) for 20 people and would like to host, please let us know!
