Women to Watch
Celebrating the successes of women (and some men) among us
We all know that once a woman decides to accomplish something, nothing can stop her. We celebrate such women each month in this Women to Watch series. As June is traditionally èBella’s “Men We Love” month, we wanted to celebrate some of the area’s great men, and their accomplishments, as well.
Please join us in congratulating these women and men on their achievements and contributions to the community.
