2006 GAC Program
I am in the process of scheduling GAC events for 2006. I am planning on holding luncheons in our Board Room in February, March, and April and having an Executive Speaker Luncheon in May. I am planning on inviting the new Mayor and/or Vice Mayor to be our guest at the February meeting once elected by the Council. The GAC will also co-sponsor an Executive Speaker luncheon in March with the Women in Business Committee.  lease contact me if you have suggestions for GAC programming by e-mail at tsmith@cambridgechamber.org or by phone at (617) 876-4213.
