We attended the 2nd annual Elkins Entrepreneurs Expo today at the Phil Gainer Center!
The afternoon sessions included one-on-one conversations at vendor booths, round table discussions, story boards, meet and greet interaction and workshops with industry leaders.
The event was well received by those in attendance. Thank you to the sponsors and all the vendors willing to share their knowledge!

Hey it’s another #moodymonday ! This is one of my favorite photos I took last year. A very foggy blue hour before a fantastic sunrise on the Shavers Fork River just outside of Elkins, WV, taken this past October during peak color in that area. I couldn’t have been luckier with the conditions. Hope you like this one and thanks for viewing!

I learned to use a weaving loom and made a YouTube video for work! On the Beverly Heritage Center’s YouTube page there’s now a “how to” video for our 1868 barn loom! Not my usual content, but I’m super proud and excited of the work I did there!
