NBG Summer Retreat      Be sure and mark your calendars for the summer Retreat on Sunday, August 1, 2010.  The Retreat will be held again at Sunrise Park in Suffield, CT.  Thanks go to Mary Jo Rushlow (Enfield, CT) for booking the Park for us each year.  Besides morning workshops, business members will set up for tailgate sales, we will feast on a wonderful pot luck lunch, and spend the afternoon bidding on basket materials and other related treasures during the annual auction.   If you would like to help in any area, please contact Maureen Smith or Christine Heller, or any board member.  Volunteers can help set up the breakfast/lunch area, registration, signing in auction items, or helping with the auction.   What a great way to spend a summer’s day with basket friends—See you there!!
