The 14th Annual Society of Bakery Women Dinner was held on Saturday, March 3, 2012 in Chicago, Illinois and was a great success despite the last minute change in itinerary. Originally scheduled to attend The French Pastry School, the event had to be cancelled due to a security breach in the nearby Sears Tower an hour before our scheduled arrival! Thanks to our quick-thinking leadership and the Marriott Downtown we had a wonderful “pop-up” reception and dinner, general meeting and election of new officers. More than fifty-five women from the United States, United Kingdom, Australia and students from Kansas State University gathered for dinner and networking.
