Versent participates in Small Business Showcase

The purple guys were having a great time at the Greater Kansas City Chamber of Commerce Small Business Celebration Candidate showcase and Business After Hours at the Muehlebach Hotel. Versent was one of fewer than 85 companies selected as a candidate. The purple balloons were fun to have, but hard to drive over to the hotel! pictures
