We are very pleased to be able to tell you that Gary Anderson of GC Anderson & Co Lawyers has very generously sponsored a private function room for our next Sabona Business Network meeting. THANK YOU GARY!!
It is next to Gordon Council (opposite Gordon Police Station). There is free parking in the Gordon Shopping Centre or near the train station (please do NOT park at the back of the building as that is for Council employees only).
Please note: As this is a private room (as opposed to a café or restaurant), tea and coffee will be provided but you won't be able to order food or specialty coffees – if you can't survive without your morning “double-short-long-black-skinny-cap-latte-al-fredo” please bring it with you!
