Summer is here! Are you planning a trip for the summer? Use your trade dollars for accommodations, cruises, restaurants, theme parks and more. It's also wedding season, a great time to purchase that timeless special occasion dress from Mack and Mack Clothing.
With the kids out of school it is also a
great time to enjoy an afternoon at Gate City Lanes, or drop them off for an
afternoon of fun at Bizi Kidz while you enjoy some pampering at Balance Day
Spa. For a dining treat, check out the patio at Bistro Sofia and enjoy
beautiful sunsets with fantastic food.
VTE will not be hosting networking events during the summer season for the months of June and July,
but will resume in August. Contact us today
for more ideas of how to maximize your trade dollars this summer. Here's
more of what's on tap for VTE members and community events for June and early July.
