Women business owners from throughout Vermont gathered for the Spring Women Business Owner's Network (WBON) conference April 29th to learn, share and connect with each other. The day kicked off early with WCAX Morning News coverage as WCAX's Tyler Dumont interviewed WBON members Amelia Gulkis, Laura Lind-Blum, Jill Davies, and Mary-Catherine Jones about the conference line up and their reasons for being involved in WBON.

Melinda Moulton of Main Street Landing was the keynote speaker to launch this year's theme "Women, Money and Business: Navigating the Financial Issues Women Business Owners Face."

The exhibit tables were busy all day as members moved between workshops and general sessions. A good crowd even made it to the conference after-party hosted by nearby Groennfell Meadery where everyone could relax and start planning for next year's event.
