Nelco spends special evening At The Quarry November 05, 2007
	Nelco executives enjoy a special evening At The Quarry. Senior staff people and their spouses spent a very unusual evening dining in The Guesthouse At The Quarry in early November. The exceptionally elegant dinner was prepared and served by Mark Iverson and his staff. Artist and owner Joseph Kinnebrew made the evening quite personal as he spoke with guests on a vide variety of subjects. Kinnebrew is well known as an internationally celebrated painter and sculptor. The Quarry is quickly becoming recognized as a garden venue for special occasions which include weddings and private parties but what is less known is that the B&B (guesthouse) also hosts off site business gatherings. In September the Anacortes Chamber held its annual retreat there. As the holiday season approaches those interested in considering The Quarry may contact them for information or an appointment at 360 466 5075 or info@atthequarry.com. The Quarry is unquestionably a unique and memorable experience.
