🎉 Our First BNI Gateway to Success Family Reunion Was a HUGE Success! 🎉

What a night! ❤️ We had a fantastic time reconnecting with current and past members at the beautiful Aurora Inn Hotel & Event Center for our very first GTS Family Reunion!

A HUGE thank-you to Franz Bauer, Aurora Inn owner and fellow BNI Gateway to Success member, and his entire team for hosting us and delivering phenomenal service all evening! From the delicious food to the welcoming atmosphere, you helped make this reunion extra special. We appreciate you! 👏

📸 Another special shout-out to Scott Gloger of SGMP – Scott Gloger Master Photographer for providing the fabulous green screen! Our fun, family reunion-branded keepsakes were a HUGE hit and gave everyone something special to remember the night.

The conversations were amazing (and some LONG overdue!), the laughter was plentiful, and the door prizes made sticking around even sweeter! Most importantly, it was a wonderful reminder that while our BNI journeys may take different paths, the connections we make along the way truly matter.

We missed everyone who couldn't join us this time. And who knows? Maybe we'll see you at the next reunion in a couple of years! 😉

❤️ A HUGE THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS!
