First Open House for professionals on June 5 well attended 

Over 80 invited prospective professionals attended the Asheville Strategic Alliance's first Open House on June 5, 2009, from 6 to 8 p.m., at ASA downtown Asheville offices.

This casual "meet-and-greet" was held at the Lexington Station complex, located at 149 South Lexington Avenue.

N.Y. Times best-selling author John Hart spoke about his just-released novel, "The Last Child."
