Strictly Business Upcoming Events

Last Month Recap

It was another month of fun in-person events for Strictly Business! While we remain cautious of social distancing and respect individuals who don’t yet feel comfortable being out and about, we feel it’s important to create networking opportunities for those who are ready and want to make new connections in the community. On July 14, we were given a warm welcome at The Chocolate Season for our Friends4Lunch event. Our guests were pleased with the new menu items! These included the Parisian Ham Sandwich, Chicken Salad Sandwich, Blat Salad, Porker Valley Wrap, and more.

We also hosted a Friends4Drinks after-hours event at Rock ‘n’ Joe Coffee Bar on July 23. It was an extra fun time because we played Music Bingo! With drinks in hand, we were given a bingo card with song titles in the squares. Then, the emcee queued up music clips just like bingo numbers! It was an interactive time that loosen everyone up and great memories were made. Rock ‘n’ Joe features a delicious wine selection on hand from their own collection, Whispering Winds Vineyards in York, in addition to other cocktails, brews, and beverages at the bar. We can’t wait to come back! We’d like to thank everyone who attended these events.
