Ladies' Night 2011Well from all accounts, Ladies' Night this year was an event not to be missed. The live music provided by the Decades Show from Deerhurst was GREAT! The Intercontinental was a beautiful location within walking distance of downtown. The hotel's staff were friendly and hospitable -- looking after us like we were family. You can read about the highlights of the evening on the Ladies' Night page. LN11 Photos have now been posted or you can download them. Thank you to all for making this another very successful MIA social get together.
