Today is the Day

Friday, October 13th, 2017

Judy G. Russell, JD, CG, CGL arrived in Grand Rapids on Thursday evening, and today we’ve had a great day visiting downtown to check out the venues of NGS 2018 being held in Grand Rapids, a visit to the giant horse at Frederick Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park and then out to the lakeshore to see Lake Michigan.

Registration is now closed, however you can still attend tomorrow’s seminar with Judy. Just come to The Salvation Army Kroc Center at 8:30 and you can register there on the spot for $49. You will need to provide your own lunch now as it’s too late to take any more orders.
