This BBC Friday we’re featuring Ignite Presentations Trial Run. Featured presenter will be premiere keyboard cowboy & code master Brian Anderson. Additionally, as time permits, we will be open for a couple “Your Board Of Directors” Think Club Strategy Roundtable Problem Solving Episodes.
Come join BBC this Friday for free friendly fun and adventure, supporting one another’s ideas, innovations, and Ignite endeavors. To begin, Brian Anderson will share his Ignite trial run with us: The large increase in oil transportation planned for Washington state, attendant risks, global warming, and a proposal to introduce a carbon tax.

Notice: Remember to join the Chamber for breakfast on Friday, May 23rd (for May only, the breakfast is not on the 1st Friday), when US Representative Derek Killmer will fill us in on congressional issues.
Notice: There’s No BBC2 This Month. And for the coming months BBC2 is on hiatus.
Ignite Bainbridge 3 @ OfficeXpats! 5 minutes, 20 slides, a big idea. Linna Callaham is leading the program this year, so don’t hesitate to contact her (please also sign up on the website to volunteer or consider being a speaker). There are already more people submitting 5-minute talks than we can put on stage on May 6! That doesn’t mean everyone will follow through, however, so if you are considering offering up a short bit of inspiration to your community, get your idea for a talk submitted SOON, to Linna Callaham, 206.842.1707 and [email protected].
