We hope you made it to April’s POWERhour! Luncheon filled with great company, engaging conversations, and an unforgettable, inspiring talk by keynote speaker, Ferne Burney, business owner and President Elect of the Fiesta Commission.
It was a sold-out event thanks to your support and enthusiasm! The energy in the room was nothing short of Fiesta-fabulous, and we hope you left feeling as motivated as we did.

We’re thrilled to announce that our next luncheon is already in the works! Mark your calendar for July 23, and prepare for another memorable gathering. We’ll share more details soon, but rest assured, we’re planning something spectacular.
Once again, thank you for being a part of this special occasion. Your presence made it all the more meaningful. We look forward to seeing you again in July!
