Wanted: Biz organizations for upcoming list

By Kimberly Hilden
SCBJ Assistant Editor

The Snohomish County Business Journal’s next Business Women issue is fast approaching.

The annual special issue, to be published in July, will spotlight women from around the county in a variety of professional fields and small-business endeavors. There will be articles on women’s health, lifestyle and finances as well as resource columns from women with field experience in the economic trenches.

To go along with all that, the journal would like to include a listing of area networking groups aimed at supporting women in business. Groups that offer networking opportunities, training and continuing-education programs, and the chance for colleagues to become friends and mentors to one another.

But to create a complete listing, the journal needs your help. If you know of such groups operating in the Puget Sound area, let us know about it, via e-mail, snail mail, fax or phone, including:

• The name of the organization.
• Meeting time and place.
• Cost for membership and/or event admission.
• Membership requirements.
• The organization’s mission: whom it serves and its purpose.
• Contact name(s) and phone numbers and/or e-mail addresses.
• The organization’s Web address.

So, if you’re a member of the local chapter of Women in Construction, attend regular meetings of Women Business Owners, head up the regional Association for Women in Computing or some other networking group, the journal would like to hear from you. E-mail information to hilden@heraldnet.com, mail to Snohomish County Business Journal, Attn: Networking Groups, Box 930, Everett, WA 98206; fax to 425-339-3049; or call 425-339-3104.

Your contribution will help make Business Women 2003 a true resource for business and professional women in Snohomish County.
