The Conway Center offers several enjoyable social interactions throughout the year that allow members to build strong relationships. We believe that some of the most productive experiences are created in less formal group settings where relationships can be built, ideas shared, and new opportunities hatched.
Golf Outing
Join us on Monday, June 24, 2024 for the 10th annual Conway Center Golf Outing! We will return to the beautiful Golf Club of Dublin, the scramble begins at 9 am, a grilled lunch is provided at the turn, followed by a full buffet reception and awards banquet after golf at 2pm. We're looking forward to a fun outing and hope you'll support this fundraising effort. ALL Conway Center members (family businesses and service providers) are welcome, along with and any guests wanting to support the work of Central Ohio family-owned business - this outing is not exclusive to Conway Center members.
REGISTER TODAY before the June 14 deadline. You can register even if you don't have a foursome - we'll put you on a team!
Numerous SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES are available! We look forward to a great day with all the players, sponsors, supporters, and volunteers.
FAMILY BUSINESS SHOWCASE
The Conway Center hosts a variety of events to bring members together and build stronger connections between current and prospective members. A favorite event is the Family Business Showcase (formerly known as Family Business Tour). Every year, family businesses host this event to share what has made their business successful, how they operate, and what their plans are for the future.
On February 29th the King family opened their doors for a behind the scenes look at their beautiful showroom. King Business Interiors has been in business for over 25 years, and specializes in flooring and office furniture for businesses.
