The Craigavon Business Forum had their, now traditional, summer barbeque on Friday 20 June. It took place at Norman Emerson’s beautiful offices on the shore of Lough Neagh. Not only did George Emerson act as host, he was also Chief Chef and produced an extremely tasty meal, that was enjoyed by all. He was ably assisted by Vanessa, who organised the event, purchased the meat from McCartney’s of Moira, bought the liquid refreshments and even found time to produce an amazing selection of salads.
The evening was well supported by members and their families and we may even have identified the next generation of Craigavon business leaders!
