            Final Thoughts – Until Next Year!
            One of the great things about the Griffin Expos is not just being introduced to the latest and greatest; it’s meeting the people
            who offer these things. A huge thanks to all our partners for all their hard work over the past year, and congratulations to those
            who won the door prizes. Also, a special thank you to our customers who attend, who also hold a wealth of information and
            willingness to share their knowledge as they network during our customer/vendor reception.
            Be sure to mark your calendars for our next year Expos: (please note our new location for Lancaster, PA)
