Back by popular demand! Dr. Mary Bourland M.D., a cardiothoracic and vascular surgeon serving Northwest Arkansas for over a year, is returning to speak to the ladies of Women In Networking about cardiovascular risk in women today. Dr. Bourland has been educating and entertaining women throughout the area since the early 90’s. She emphasizes a healthy diet, proper exercise, and takes a direct approach to maintaining good cardiovascular health.

Heart Disease is the leading cause of death in men and women in the United States, and nearly 47% of all cardiac deaths occur before emergency medical care can be provided. Educating yourself on the ways to prevent cardiovascular disease could very well help save your life or the life of a loved one.

With over 21 years of experience in the profession, certificates and accreditations too numerous to name, and a bubbly, high-energy personality, Dr. Bourland’s presentation is not one to be missed.

Please RSVP by using the “RSVP” link located in the navigation bar at the top of the page. Thank you.

This year was a fabulous event. We were excited to see so many of our ladies attend this annual fund raiser and have such an enjoyable afternoon. Our emcee, Jeff Wood of Gray Matters shared his heart warming story of growing up in a single parent family and the importance of support that comes from people that reach out to others. Our main speaker, Kathy Ferguson brought challenged us to be “Dangerous Women” in our day to day lives and in pouring ourselves into others lives. We, as women, are so special in what we bring into the lives of those around us in more ways than we sometimes take time to realize.

Make plans to attend the final Women In Networking meeting of 2007. The Holiday Extravaganza is a special occasion for all of our members. All year long we work to build relationships with our fellow business women and this is our chance to celebrate, not only the relationships, but women, networking and our accomplishments throughout the year. We, the Board, look forward to seeing you there!

We are pleased to announce our speaker for the 2007 Holiday Extravaganza, Katherine Ferguson. Please join us in welcoming her.

Kathy serves as the Director of Women and Special Ministries at the Church at Pinnacle Hills in Rogers, Arkansas. She is the widow of the late Dr. Rick Ferguson, pastor of Riverside Baptist Church, in Denver, Colorado for eleven years. Katherine and Rick served in churches in Missouri, Texas, and Colorado and were married for twenty-six years, prior to his death in 2002.

Kathy is a gifted teacher, communicator, and speaker. She combines her faith with the vulnerability of real life in a way that engages the audience with authenticity and grace. Since her husband’s death, she has found a calling and purpose in working with women and seeing them pursue a life fueled by faith. She has a tremendous heart for encouraging women who face unexpected challenges in life.

Kathy graduated from University of Missouri. She is the mother of three children and one granddaughter. Kathy will be an inspiration to us all.

We would also like to welcome Jeff Wood as our Master of Ceremonies.
