Once again, the WRBA will be coordinating the Classic Car Show at RidgeFest. Last year, it was a huge success, and this year is going to be even bigger and better. As part of the car show, we give away many door prizes to participating car owners. Last year, WRBA members were extremely generous and donated many prizes for the show. We are asking for your help again this year. If your business would like to contribute, please email Ashley Holland at aholland@wearelocalworks.org by August 31. We’ll recognize your business for your contribution, and it’ll help make this year’s car show the best one yet. Thanks!

October Speaker – Jayne Sanders,  Scientific Hand Analysis Specialist

After an MBA and over 25 years in the corporate world, Jayne Sanders began a search for more meaningful, joyful work by helping people in deeper ways. She found Scientific Hand Analysis, and her life hasn’t been the same since! She is now is a Master Hand Analyst & Teacher, Purpose Coach, and Law of Attraction Coach. How powerful is Scientific Hand Analysis? It is so accurate, profound, and life-changing that FORBES wrote an article about Jayne and her work.  Jayne’s other passion is riding Darby, her Arabian-Appaloosa cross she rescued a few years ago. She is all about hands and horses!  Well, and dark chocolate too.
