There was great information shared in this presentation to help us all better understand ABWA locally and nationally.
February's Meal Sponsor was Holly Ripke with Ripke Law Office (pictured right). Holly shared how 'GNOME' one wants to file bankruptcy! She shared more about her firm and debt relief options.
