Idaho Business groups pull together

Northwest Women in Business join with Men for trade fair, fund-raiser

Making sure there’s never a dull moment in the Kootenai County business community, the Northwest Women in Business, Northwest Women in Real Estate and Northwest Men in Business networking groups are coming together to hold a business and trade fair similar to, but smaller than, the spring event held by the Coeur d’Alene Area Chamber of Commerce.

Close to 60 participants are expected at the Sept. 28 event at the Coeur d’Alene Inn, with just over half already signed up. Organizer Diana Tuttle said she hopes to have all tables filled by Monday. She and Evelyn Bevacqua, organizers of the women’s groups, also decided to use the event as a fund-raiser to help victims of Hurricane Katrina.

"Evelyn and I began brainstorming the idea about a month ago," Tuttle said. "Different members of the women’s group wanted to do more, to meet more people and publicize their business."
