Chamber holds Franklin networking event
from The Milford Daily News News RSSGov 2.0 Camp - great discussions started
Gov 2.0 Camp was held at the Sorenstein Center at Harvard on Saturday, March 6th. In an unconference format, it brought together a diverse group of folks all interested in improving government.
As part of the unconference, each attendee introduced themselves and provided three words. Someone was quick enough to capture all the three words and produced the following Wordle:

My three words were: conversation, content, community.

Invitation from Roger at Shades In Place
Spring is just around the corner and my plan is to get you in the mood and welcome back the sun and the warm weather again (especially if you are from the New England area). Also, I love the idea of making this an annual event....starting this year!
Shades In Place is hosting a Gold Party where you can sell all of your unwanted , broken, ex-boyfriend's, ex-husband's gold, and make some money to kick off the Spring season. If you bring gold in you could possibly walk away with a big check.
To make it even more interesting, I will have Silpada Jewelry and Mary Kay representatives to show and demonstrate the latest products for you.

Mary Kay -Tina Marie Daverntdavern@marykay.com

Cheryl Reed “ Silpada Designs Independent Representative”cherylreed4@comcast.net
Where? At Shades IN Place Studio: 76 Grove Street in Franklin MA 01748
When? Thursday, April 1st - Don't be a "Fool"! Come between 4:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m.
Why? Because I love networking and making my clients feel special.
I will be providing refreshments, music and reasons for you to laugh and have a great time.
The bottom line is: I want to introduce you to my Studio and show you ways to pamper your home (with our beautiful window treatments) and provide you with a great opportunity to pamper yourself.
Please R.S.V.P. by March 20th since seating is limited.
Hope to see you there. Oh, you are welcome to bring a friend or two with you...
P.S. If you are a guy, bring or send your wife or girlfriend.
