Join us for the March Breakfast & Business, focused on healthcare in Marquette County.
Start your morning with coffee, breakfast, and time to connect before a conversation with regional leaders about the role healthcare plays in our community. Panelists will share high-level perspectives on what they are seeing locally, how needs are changing, and how organizations are working together to support residents and businesses.
This discussion will explore the connections between healthcare, quality of life, and a strong local economy, with time for questions and open dialogue.
Registration is encouraged, as space is limited. Breakfast and networking are included.
Panelists include:
- Tonya Darner, UP Health System
- Melissa Holmquist, Upper Peninsula Health Plan
- Elise Bur, NMU Center for Rural Health
