To start, I’ve never been to the annual GearFest event put on by Sweetwater Sound in northern Indiana. It’s quite a large production, with four tents of gear and instruments, and indoor workshops covering evertything from “How to Choose a Drumkit” to “Grammy Award Winning Recording Tips”.

Week eight of the Networking series. This week I’m writing about a Northwest Indiana general contractor. A lot of people probably don’t think that social media is of much use to a builder, construction company, or an architect. Jeff Eriks, on the other hand, thinks differently.

In continuing with my weekly Networking series (detailing people I’ve come to know in recent months in northern Indiana), I’m writing about another useful resource that just about anyone in northern Indiana could use. If you or someone you know is looking to move to a subdivision in or around Elkhart, Indiana, this is a great place to start. This weeks post is about a great resource to help assist in finding a new home in an Elkhart subdivision. That resource is Elkhart real estate agent Evelyn Johnston.
