THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS
The Jefferson County Businesswomen's Group has been formed to help bring awareness to the Leading Ladies of Jefferson County. To allow a means of networking for future entrepeneurs, and sharing their stories of how they have succeeded to where they are today! We are not about solicitation, this is a place where you can come, sit and listen to these engaging life-changing stories. The Businesswomen's Group will host quarterly socials, all held at Villa Antonio Winery, free of charge.

SHOPPING LOCAL
Shopping local creates the sales tax money needed to fund our local fire,
ambulance, and police. It also generates funding for road repairs.
" Shop Jefferson County,
it may just save your life!"
