April Meeting and Good-bye Bryce!


With heavy hearts, but wishing him the best at his next duty station, the IHBO said farewell to our Craft and Info Fair logistics king, Bryce Piper, at the April meeting Monday. Thank you for all of your dedication and hard work you've given the organization these past 18 months!

Other items discussed in the meeting:

1) The name of the Craft and Information Fair is changing to the Home Business Expo.
2) The next Expo is tentatively scheduled for sometime in October.
3) We plan to increase the number of Expos to three a year: Feb., June and Oct.
4) Expo booth space will be limited to one corporate brand representative, on a first registered, first served basis. So, that means only one Tupperware rep, one Cookie Lee rep, etc. Additional details will be shared in time for the next Expo.
5) Shannon Reuter, owner of RENEW Massage, will be taking on Bryce's responsibilities as expo logistics guru.

If you are interested in starting your own business while in Iwakuni, or already have one and would like to join the IHBO, you can find more information on this web site's About page.

We will be taking a hiatus from meetings for the next few months. The next meeting is scheduled for 6 p.m. August 25, 2014 in the station library. We will have registration for the Fall Business Expo at that time. Details to be announced later.
