"Thank you" to our Annual Meeting Attendees

We were pleased to host nearly 400 members and investors at our GSP Annual Meeting on February 23rd. Our theme for the night was: ONWARD!

It was a great night capped off by the presentation of the Richard L. Kuss Lifetime Community Achievement award to Mr. Jim Lagos.

If you were unable to make it, you can see some event pics below. We will also be posting videos of our annual award winners on our Facebook page.

For our YP March Lunch + Learn, we'll be heading to the Gammon House to hear from Dale Henry about the historical site which was one of only three existing Ohio "stops" on the Underground Railroad owned by a free person of color.

This Lunch + Learn will have a slightly different format:
We'll spend the first 10 minutes with some light networking then Dale Henry will speak with us about the Gammon House. We'll wrap up around 12:45pm and we'll have boxed lunches for you to grab on your way out.
