Stories
From Denise re: Ad Bag Mtg on Friday
I’d appreciate if I could get a head count so I can arrange enough tour guides. Please email denise@adbag.com if you are coming.
  • Enter through the south entrance/first entrance when coming from Washington St and head straight back. I’ve instructed my staff not to park in those areas.
  • I’m asking that Rotarians park in the front office staff parking area. This entrance is not where we had Christmas Clearing House.
  • Rotarians enter through the door marked EMPLOYEES ONLY. It’s not the entrance if you are coming to see me in my office.
  • We will have lunch and then we will go on a tour of our facility.
  • Please note that no open-toe shoes are allowed.
Thanks for hosting us, Denise!
