Step away from your desk and into an uplifting day of connection and inspiration. Our annual Mid-Year Retreat, (because our NAWBO year runs from July 1 – June 30), isn’t just another business meeting – it’s a relaxed gathering where friendships blossom, ideas flow freely, and we celebrate each other’s successes in a warm, welcoming environment. Think of it as your mid-year refresh: a chance to recharge, share stories, and connect with fellow women entrepreneurs who understand your journey.
Hosted at the beautiful home of one of our Past Presidents, this unique event offers something you won’t find at our regular chapter meetings: the chance to connect, reflect, and dream big in a relaxed, intimate setting. Whether you’re a long-time member or curious about joining NAWBO, you’re invited to be part of this transformative day. Breakfast and Lunch is included as well as amazing speakers and engaging team building activities. You won’t want to miss it!!
