Hundreds of businesspeople looking for new ideas, new vendors and new prospects attended the Rockland Business Association's Spring Tabletop Show at the Holiday Inn & Conference Center. "Some of us just came because it was a great day to get out of the office and maybe find something positive at the show," noted one of the attendees.

"This has proven to be a teriffic new event," noted Al Samuels, RBA President/CEO.  "I fully intend to repeat this next year. Joan Neumann and the entire RBA staff deserve a great deal of praise for putting this event together."

Kathleen Fealy, KF Multimedia & Web, presented "Essentials of Marketing Your Business on the Web - Actions & Answers" at one of the Business Development Breakout Sessions

In the planning stages it was hoped there would be 40 vendors; the event wound-up with 48.  Floor traffic was good throughout the day and the Business After Hours was an SRO gathering.  The Breakout Sessions were a good balance to the day and special attention will be given the subject areas to be featured at next year's events.  "It's clear our members want information on marketing and the new technologies," said Joan Neumann.
