Networking is one of the core benefits of participating in the Mill Creek Business Association (MCBA). The MCBA Networking Committee wants to make sure that they are best serving the memberships’ needs and have created an online survey designed to learn, change and adjust the planned networking events so that members gain the most value. The committee will use the results of the survey to set this year’s networking plan and as a guide for all future events.

Please take a few minutes to complete the online survey. Here’s how, simply click this link to take the survey and answer the questions: http://www.zoomerang.com/Survey/?p=WEB22A8HYJZKQS. The survey should take no more than five (5) minutes to complete. The MCBA board and networking committee is dedicated to assuring the networking events are profitable and fun for everyone, so please take a few moments to participate.

Thank you for your time and attention.
