Due to the overwhelming amount of interest in attending the industrial h**p meeting on January 31st, we have decided to reschedule this event for a later date. We need to go back to the planning board to ensure each and every person interested in industrial h**p has an opportunity to learn about it. We will be looking into planning an all-day educational event that will be larger than our original planned meeting. Please call and leave us your name and email address if you would like to receive information on this future program. Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused.
