"I have to tell you how much fun Saturday night was!  Pat yourselves on the back.  You ladies sure know how to put on an event.  Everyone I have spoken with had a great time and hope you do it again.  Congratulations, job well done!!!!!!!!"  M.T.

"I just wanted to thank you again for putting on last night's event.  I really appreciate all the hard work you put in and the very good job of organizing in general.  I'll look forward to the next one!"  C.W.

"Dear Fabulous Athena Women,
Thank all of y'all for putting together the great evening ~ it was outstanding!  I know it must have been a huge amount of work, but thank you, thank you.   Everyone I talked to at Meteor said they enjoyed it and that it was a great group of women.  One of my friends made some wonderful professional networking contacts and was able to make a significant professional contact on behalf of someone she met.  I think everyone is hoping y'all will do it again, and I know that the women I spoke with are very appreciative that your group is developing more activities in the community.  Again, thank you for the great event.  (And by the way, I heard a lot of comments about how hot the women running the event are!  So if any of y'all are single, you'll have lines next to you next time.)"  A.K.

"Thanks. Ya'll did a good job."  T.C.

"Hello ladies, thanks for organizing a very good initiative, I look forward to the next event. The only suggestion is to do it more often."  Y.
