Women from around the country are expected to converge on Daytona Beach, Florida April 18-20, 2008 for the First Annual Baby Boomer Girlfriends’ Spring Break.

“This trail-blazing event is being created to offer mature women a total empowerment experience,” says Baby Boomer Author Beverly Mahone, whose company, BAM Enterprises, is hosting the three-day affair. “After 40, our needs, wants and desires change. This is the weekend where women can throw caution to the wind and do something just for us.”

Mahone says the weekend will be filled with lots of activities including a Boomer Marketplace, Diva pageant, pamper me mini-spas, aerobics workout and an awards luncheon, featuring guest speaker baby boomer actress Bern Nadette Stanis, who played Thelma on the TV sitcom, Good Times. There will be karaoke and dance contests as well as workshops on topics such as Caring for Aging Parents; Marketing Your Business; Shifting  your Career Gears, Money Matters, etc.  

The taping of a Town Hall Meeting entitled Boomer Women:  Having Our Say, with PBS Station WCEU-TV15, is also on tap for the weekend. But the highlight of the weekend, according to Mahone, will be the Over 40 Girlfriends PA-JAMMING PARTY Saturday night.  

Mahone says having a mature women’s spring break is necessary because, “we spend 362 days out of the year taking care of husbands, children, and pets; dealing with obnoxious co-workers, traffic jams and nosey neighbors——-but for three days (April 18-20) we are going to throw caution to the wind in Daytona Beach, FL and do something just for us!”
