Highlights from Sydney's Blues & Jazz Restaurant Mixer in Rehoboth
 
A great time was had by al at the BNI mixer held at Sydney's on Thursday, Sept. 19th in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. Many refreshing faces were seen including: Sydney Arzt - our gracious and lovely host who provided her wonderful restaurant for our event, Joanne Iliff of BJ's Catering, Jim & Beth Broadhurst of JKB Builders, Larry & Roberta McWilliams of Skillets Restaurant in Long Neck, Bob Hamilton of Hamilton Engine, Jo from AFT Transmissions, Jennifer August of Psychagraphics, Trevour Geourt of TLC Landscaping, Phil Daisey of Around the Clock Heating & A/C Inc., Anthony Zigman (Ziggy) of Ziggy's Painting & Wallcoverings, Kevin Fleming of Portfolio Books, Sam Nainani of King Sports Lair, Carson Kennard of A1 Wildlife Management Services, Star Quill and Sally from the Total Picture from Newark, Delaware, and Bill Bell from Wilmington drove down to represent his company, Gotcha Covered! There were also a few other guests in attendance invited by members and we're sorry if we did not mention your names. It was a terrific group of people!
One of the highlights of the evening was being able to meet Joe Biliski of Man-Maid Cleaning Services. Joe is a local Rehoboth businessman who found himself in the middle of our event and had the opportunity to learn all about barter. We're happy to announce that he joined our network and become a member of BNI that evening! Joe says, his cleaning service will "Dust your delicates, but stay our of your drawers!" We thought that was entirely too funny and very clever, so we had to share it with you! Please consider using his service if you live in or near the Rehoboth Beach, Delaware area.
the BNI staff really enjoyed mixing it up that evening and would like to thank all of you who attended, and again thank Sydney for her generosity in providing a great atmosphere and great food!

Member Kudos!!
Often times, people do not take the time to write a letter of praise for a job well done. Usually, letters received by companies are often to highlight areas of concern or complaints. We thought we would share with you a letter received by Carrie Cooper, from one of our members with regard to services performed by another BNI member. As always, we encourage and welcome your feedback.

Hello Carrie,
Just a quick not to let you know that Tom from Artisan Electric just finished the smoke alarm job for me. Tom is not only shipper and upbeat, he did the job in about 2 hours. I thought for sure it would take longer than that. He arrived when he said he would, got right to the task at hand and finished in record time. I am so pleased with his work. Just thought you should know that he does what he said he will do and does it quickly!
Thanks for the referral! Have a great weekend, the weather is supposed to be just beautiful!!
