- Michigan Works is having a career fair on Tuesday, March 25th at the Michigan Works office in Benton Harbor. Michigan Works is a non-profit organization that helps both employers & employees alike. There is no charge for employers wanting to have a presence. Anyone interested can call 1-800-533-5800.
- “Make a Date with a Builder” is two weeks away! Due to time constraints, we only have room for 11 associate members to meet with the builders! Tile Mart, Meridian Title, Louck’s Concrete Specialists, Yeo & Yeo, River Valley Kitchens, Aim Water, Edgewater Bank & Pella Windows are the associates I currently have signed up, so if you do not see your name here and wish to participate I need you to call or email to RSVP. There are still a couple of spaces available, so get your RSVP’s in today! If this event goes over well, I will revamp the format to allow for more time, so more associate members can participate!
- We are looking for volunteers for the Home, Garden & Leisure Show. Volunteers will either help with set up/take down, or man admissions or our booth, where we will be selling raffle tickets for our Harley-Davidson.
- The Kalamazoo Home Builders Assoc. is holding an educational course called Construction Contracts & Law on Tuesday, February 26, 2008 from 8am – 4 pm. Course will be held at the Kalamazoo HBA office located at 5700 W. Michigan Ave., Kalamazoo.

You can get more details at www.kalamazoohomepage.com, or contact me and I will forward the flyer that was sent to me.
- Does anyone know anything about slide shows and what materials are needed? We have tons of pictures from past SWMHBA events, and I would like to put together slide shows to run during our general membership meetings. The St. Joseph Elks Club has a nice screen, but no equipment.
