New in 2021

As we strive to bring a better virtual experience to our members and community we are adopting a new platform for our Weekly Business Presentations.

  1. You will still register on our event page as you have in the past.
  2. Receive a private ticket link for Hopin. This link will appear on your registration confirmation after purchasing, and will also be sent in a reminder email the morning of the selected program.
  3. Follow that link and click the blue "Join event" button to complete the second step of your registration.

Registration fees will be $5 for members and $10 for non-members.
For this fee you receive the private link, the ability to network and interact with your fellow attendees, and a recording of the days presentation emailed to you by the following Friday.

*If it is your first time attending a Hopin event, you will be prompted to create a very simple account.
