According to a recent Gallup poll, 58% of Americans plan to cut their vacation budget or skip vacation altogether this year. Jessica Waytenick, Marketing and Public Relations Manager of the Quad Cities Convention and Visitors Bureau will lead a discussion for the Women's Opportunity Network of all the fun things there are to do in the area that won't break the bank. The luncheon will be held on Thursday, June 18th, from 12 to 1pm at the AmericInn in Monmouth, with optional networking time following the luncheon. The registration fee is $15 and includes lunch.
