******************************
FASTEN Network director, Amy Sherman was in Indianapolis Thursday, to make these presentations at a special luncheon hosted by the Sagamore Institute.
Each and every organization receiving Partners in Transformation awards were notable in several ways. One of the collection of significant ideas, was the concept of a 'virtual warehouse'... a great concept that could perhaps be highly useful in the Indianapolis area.
