President's Blog   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21) As WBO moves through its 25th year, what better way to celebrate than by honoring 25 outstanding Montgomery County women, who, each in her own way, are a positive force in our community, are role models for others, and whose spirit enlarges the canvas. WBO was established by a group of pioneering women who owned and operated their own businesses (at a time when this was a very uncommon thing for women to do) and who wanted to create a forum in which they could share information in a supportive environment. WBO is joining forces with community organizations to promote entry of women in the workplace: our scholarship for a Montgomery County resuming student; a relationship with Suited for Change and Dwelling Place; the Athena Award; the Rockville Chamber Women in Business Fair startright program. www.wbo-mc.com /prezblog.html   (6698 words)
