Second Thursday Meetings

Meetings are held on the second Thursday of every month at the Boone County Extension Office (6028 Camp Ernst Road, Burlington, KY 41005. View MAP for directions). Informal networking starts at 8:20 a.m. Monthly meetings begin at 8:30 a.m. Each month an educational speaker provides information useful for home-based, micro- and small business owners.

Are You One of Us?

If your business day includes answering the phone, scheduling, managing the budget, planning the advertising, meeting your clients' needs, making the coffee and mopping the floor -- then this is the group for you.

Who Are We?

While we've yet to have a zookeeper join us, our members own businesses that run the gamut from A to almost Z; artists, attorneys, accountants, beauticians, bed and breakfast operators, realtors, financial planners, horseback riding instructors, shop owners, restaurant operators, home-party planners, organizers, specialty products salespeople, interior designers, insurance agents, and more. We are home-based, micro- and small business owners working to help one another improve our businesses.
