It was wonderful to see so many of you at July’s Lunch & Learn! A special thank you to our Keynote Speaker, Sheriff Tommy Ford of the Bay County Sheriff's Office, for speaking to our BBIA members and friends. We are always eager to learn about the measures in place to keep our community safe, as well as the new steps being taken as we continue to grow. We are fortunate to have such a leader protecting Bay County! 

Thank you to Mid-South Lumber Co and Southern Brass for sponsoring our Lunch & Learn. We couldn't do what we do without the support of our sponsors. 

 A big shoutout to ALL OF YOU! Together, we raised $480 and collected boxes of school supplies for the Bay Education Foundation’s supply drive for Bay District Schools. As Bryan Taylor reminded us, this will be a focus throughout the year, and we will continue to support this important project for the children of our community. If you were not able to join us today and want to donate, please reach out to Bryan or Stacy and we will be happy to help.

Thank you, Bill Black from People’s First Insurance for our beautiful invocation. 

Thank you, Aaron from SmartBank, for checking in all of our members again this month! 

Thank you to our BBIA President, Marty Perrett with First National Bank Northwest Florida, for always reminding us of the immense value we have in being part of this amazing association and federation!
