The Eureka Business Association requests the pleasure of your attendance at the next regularly scheduled meeting on Thursday, June 15, 2006.

The EB.A is introducing a new program at each monthly meeting
and an invited local business will be the honored guest. The business guest representative will have been asked to present information about their company that is of interest to the business community and to also inform the meeting attendees of lesser-known aspects of their business that would be of interest.

One of the EBA' s goals is to promote Eureka area businesses and what could be a better wav than to allow our business community members to inform their community business partners of the goods & services offered by our town's fine merchants & organizations?

On June 15, at the Assembly Room, Maple Lawn Homes at 8:00 .AM

Chuck Staley Of Century 21 will bring us up to date on Commercial Property development in the Eureka area.

The EBA welcomes all members and any company representative. See you there!
