We love to show off our guests, and the positive impact they have on our community.

"The Mysteries of Baroque Music...DEmystified" with Olivier Henchiri, lead cellist and founder/artistic director of the Ottawa Baroque Consort.
"I loved the mixed media approach used by Olivier. He spoke to us directly, used slides, musical excerpts and live music (cello and oboe) to keep us involved and alert."
"This talk was so engaging, interactive and interesting!"

"5 Steps to Feeling Vibrant, Confident and Energized" with Laura Parsons

"Financial Planning for Every Age" by Karim Gwardari and attorney Jacques Cote'
"So enjoyable!"
"Thank you for being so welcoming!"
"I have to admit that I was skeptical coming into a room with men in suits but was pleasantly surprised and very much appreciated that Karim tailored the presentation to the attendees. Excellent presentation!"
"I wanted to share that today made a difference for those who attended. You should be proud for organizing this session. I really believe you strengthened and educated those that attended."
