Glen Head Glenwood Business Association Meeting - April 18

In March, Extravagant Realty joined the "Glen Head Glenwood Business Association" which has been in operation for about 40 years.  Every month they have a speaker that helps businesses and neighbors learn information on different topics.  This month Steven Swimmer from Renaissance Merchant Services spoke about Credit Card Freud and Identity Theft.  Mr. Swimmer told us how we can protect ourselves when it comes to scams through emails, phone and even as simple as not throwing out a prescription pill bottle with our detailed information left on the bottle. 

The Glen Head Glenwood Business Association meets the 3rd Wednesday of every month at the Glenwood Landing American Legion Post 336, 190 Glen Head Rd., Glen Head, NY 11545.  There is a buffet at a nominal fee & open cash bar at the meetings.  All meetings are open to businesses and neighbors.   It is a good way to network and meet others and learn about the different topics that are offered each meeting.

Pleas note: Next month meeting is Wednesday, May 16th and Legislator, Delia Deriggi Whitton will be there to answer any questions regarding our local area.
