Business Day in Annapolis

The Maryland Chamber of Commerce held its “Business Day in Annapolis” and encouraged members of local Chambers to meet with their legislators to discuss the impacts of legislation on the business community.  SMECO sponsored a group of executives to attend the session and met with the Charles County Delegation.  I had an opportunity to meet with Darlene Breck and Blaine Lessard of the Southern Maryland Business Center and hear their concerns about the economic climate.  Meetings like these are important to me because they give me a chance to hear firsthand the issues that are important to those I represent.  Besides, it’s always good to see someone from home. The Southern Maryland Business Center was one of the nominees for the 2008 Small Business of the Year Award.
