by On Monday evening, the premarket sponsors committee invited retailers and other guests to the dinner and social event held at the Grandover Resort in Greensboro, North Carolina. As always, the event was a way for the furniture community to gather for a night of fun and relaxation after a long day of visiting showrooms and viewing product. Home News Now also attended the event, mingling with guests and taking photos of some of those who attended. Below are some of the longtime industry friends and associates we ran into who were seen enjoying an evening of good food, good wine and fellowship.
