Networking Groups
As a member of the Heritage Corridor Business Alliance, you are able to join one (or more) of these subgroups. These groups are meant to increase your contacts, learn more about your fellow members (potentially coming across new customers), develop skills, or just have fun.
And, you don't have to be the President/Owner/CEO to participate (unless stated in the group). If you are interested in being an Ambassador, while you have an up-and-coming marketing star that would be suited best as a Storyteller ... you both can apply!
We are just launching these groups, so its the perfect time get in while we have a "blank slate" and help determine the direction for these groups. And yes, eventually we will take photos to replace the stock photos used on this and other pages.
Is there a group that you are interested in starting, that we haven't listed yet? Contact Dan at dan@myhcba.com. Sometimes, the best ideas are the ones we haven't thought of yet.
