Next Wednesday, August 12th, the Women In Business Council is hosting the 10th annual Lynne Smith Luncheon at the Georgia Center for Continuing Education. This annual event is held each August in memory of Lynne Smith, an active business leader of our community who was tragically killed in an automobile accident.
This year the speaker is a special treat. Sgt. Courtney Gale of the Athens Clarke County Police Department will be joining us this year telling her story of strength and survival. You will remember, it was Courtney that was savagely attacked while working as off duty security for a local business 2 years ago. Her survival and recovery are indeed a miracle.
Ticket sales have been slow this year, and thus this email appeal. Please consider joining us yourself, or purchasing 2 tickets for a friend, or someone you work with and help the Women In Business have a great 10th Anniversary of the Lynne Smith Luncheon. The luncheon starts at 11:30 on Wednesday.
Reservations can be made on line on www.athensga.com. Tickets are $30 and can be paid online or at the door.
