  Manufacturing Networking Group (MNG) Community Networking Groups Philosophy: Generating leads is the key to any business success. To make a referral to a person or business, we must first build and nurture relationships by getting to know, like and trust one another. Chamber Community Networking Groups should be a formative and motivating element of your marketing strategy for  your business or position.  Chamber Networking Groups acts as an expanded sales team, providing introductions and "warm referrals" to individuals and companies you want to do business with. Through the professional relationships and rapport established between members over time, Chamber Groups support each other's business initiatives as referrers, customers, supplies, and mentors. Participation in Chamber Groups can help grow your professional network, sharpen your sales presentation skills, and increase the centers of influence supporting your operations. Group Criteria:    * You must be a member in good standing with the Chamber.     * Small Groups / Lead Share are a benefit of membership. Therefore, guests can visit twice before joining.     * You will be encouraged to contribute to the group through participation.     * You will be encouraged to have 1 on 1 meetings with group members. Mission: To foster a collaborative and innovative community of local manufacturing professionals dedicated to advancing regional industry standards, sharing knowledge, and driving sustainable growth. We aim to connect leaders, innovators, and experts to create a network that empowers members to achieve excellence and shape the future of manufacturing Idea:     Do a yearly project together or quarterly social to build on relationships in a more casual atmosphere.

Named a Most Anticipated Book of 2025 by People, Boston Globe, Chicago Tribune, Bustle and more From one of our most acclaimed chroniclers of the forces eroding America’s social fabric, her most personal and powerful work: a reckoning with the changes that have rocked her own beloved small Ohio hometown Urbana, Ohio, was not a utopia when Beth Macy grew up there in the ’70s and ’80s—certainly not for her family. Her dad was known as the town drunk, which hurt, as did their poverty. But Urbana had a healthy economy and thriving schools, and Macy had middle-class schoolmates whose families became her role models. Though she left for college on a Pell Grant and then a faraway career in journalism, she still clung gratefully to the place that had helped raise her. But as Macy’s mother’s health declined in 2020, she couldn’t shake the feeling that her town had dramatically hardened. Macy had grown up as the paper girl, delivering the local newspaper, which was the community’s civic glue. Now she found scant local news and precious little civic glue. Yes, much of the work that once supported the middle class had gone away, but that didn’t begin to cover the forces turning Urbana into a poorer and angrier place. Absenteeism soared in the schools and in the workplace as a mental health crisis gripped the small city. Some of her old friends now embraced conspiracies. In nearby Springfield, Macy watched as her ex-boyfriend—once the most liberal person she knew—became a lead voice of opposition against the Haitian immigrants, parroting false talking points throughout the 2024 presidential campaign. This was not an assignment Beth Macy had ever imagined taking on, but after her mother’s death, she decided to figure out what happened to Urbana in the forty years since she’d left. The result is an astonishing book that, by taking us into the heart of one place, brings into focus our most urgent set of national issues. Paper Girl is a gift of courage, empathy, and insight. Beth Macy has turned to face the darkness in her family and community, people she loves wholeheartedly, even the ones she sometimes struggles to like. And in facing the truth—in person, with respect—she has found sparks of human dignity that she has used to light a signal fire of warning but also of hope.

Groundbreaking New Book Explores the Bond Between Horses and Women Horse Lovers: Unpacking the Female Fascination is the latest from award-winning journalist, equestrian and author Karin Winegar "A beautiful journey into the hearts of women and the horses we love." — Marion Maggiolo, Publisher, In & Around Horse Country "Karin writes with passion, intelligence, wit, beauty, wisdom and a deep, lifelong love of horses. Horse Lovers had me in tears, cheering for the underdogs and the forgotten horses, or breathless in her descriptions of elite equines." —Lynne Warfel, National Host/Producer American Public Media’s Classical 24 and Saturday Cinema "Karin Winegar gets to the heart and soul of women and horses once again in her newest book. What fun to read of other horsewomen in so many disciplines and find the root of their love in horses." —Louise Leatherdale, Leatherdale Farms Minneapolis, MN, November 22, 2024 — The latest book from award-winning journalist and lifelong equestrian Karin Winegar, Horse Lovers: Unpacking the Female Fascination (Horse Feed Press, November 22, 2024) explores the profound and enduring connection between girls, women and horses. In-depth interviews of foremost experts combined with Winegar's deft and knowledgeable narrative deliver a compelling read that unravels the real roots of "horse craziness" that has captivated millions of girls and women worldwide for centuries. "I knew that writing Horse Lovers would allow me to explore the heart of why horses have such a powerful hold on women and girls. At the same time, it allowed me to celebrate the diverse and vibrant culture horses inspire," said Winegar. With more than 30 years of research, interviews, and personal riding adventures across the U.K. and North America, Winegar offers a sweeping view of the unique phenomenon of the deep connection between horses and women. Horse Lovers is "a colorful worldwide culture of vivid lives and a unique form of love" and "a trail of exaltations, adventures, and inquiries ranging from pony-struck toddlers to horse-smitten scientists,” said Winegar. In this fascinating book, Winegar interviews experts such as Rita Mae Brown, author, feminist and master of foxhounds, Dr. Castle McLaughlin, social anthropologist and former Harvard Peabody Museum curator, and Pulitzer Prize-winning poet and horsewoman Maxine Kumin. Karin Winegar was a staff writer for the Minneapolis Star Tribune for 20 years. Her freelance work has appeared in major media, including The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Conde Nast Traveler and Los Angeles Times. She has won several Lowell Thomas Awards for investigative journalism and maritime writing, Equestrian Industry Media Recognition awards for feature writing, and American Quarter Horse Association awards for media commentary. Her non-fiction book SAVED: Rescued Animals and The Lives They Transform (De Capo Press, 2009) with photographer Judy Olausen was an Amazon pet books bestseller.
