The New River Network - Postponed

We have decided not to have a New River Network professional mixer in January. We are currently rethinking our strategy for the Network and will keep you posted as to what we’re going to do next.

If you have any questions, please feel free to email us.

The New River Network—Back in 2006

There won't be a New River Network Professional Mixer this month (December). We decided not to do it at the last minute because it seems that everyone has a lot of holiday stuff going on. So, we'll be looking to kick it back off in 2006—keep an eye out for our next email or on this website for dates, etc.

We're hoping to really improve things in 2006. If anyone is interested in helping us out or sponsoring any mixers, please let me know.

Until next time, happy holidays! I hope everyone is able to bring the New Year in with a bang.
