WELCOME, GBCC 2025 BOARD OF DIRECTORS!

GBCC is honored to recognize and welcome our 2025 Board of Directors, who were sworn in during our first Board Meeting of the year this past Wednesday. We are thankful for your service to our organization, and hope to see many GBCC Members at our Installation Reception and Annual Membership Meeting this Thursday!

"OFF THE CLOCK" NETWORKING HAPPY HOUR

GBCC kicked off 2025 with a HUGE "Off the Clock" Networking Happy Hour hosted by one of Bethesda's newest gems BT's Bethesda Bar and Grill. With over 125 attendees connecting, getting to know a new local restaurant, and enjoying delicious food and drink, "Off the Clock" truly provides the best networking in Bethesda! Thank you all who attended and to BT's for your hospitality!

SENIOR MARKET GROUP (SMG)

GBCC's Senior Market Group enjoyed an energizing and inspiring presentation and demonstration by Dr. Kim Bercovitz, founder of Byte-Size Wellness. She discussed bone strength, fall prevention, and fitness through Pole-Walking, also known as Nordic Walking. Thank you to Dr. Kim for a fantastic presentation!

WOMEN'S NETWORKING GROUP (WNG)

The first WNG meeting of 2025 was met with great success. Over 40 members registered to attended, network, and learn about the various tax laws and changes that affect their business filings. Many thanks to our guest speaker and Tax Client Specialist, Rawsun Akther, of Weaver. Guests also enjoyed delicious bites courtesy of Weaver and refreshing wine selections courtesy of The Wine Concierge.
