Business After Hours is a networking event for local businesses that takes place every month at the Smoke Rise Country Club, 4900 Chedworth Drive in Stone Mountain.

This month's gathering is on Thursday, July 26. It starts at 6 p.m. and ends at 9 p.m. Art Wood of Hometown Lenders in Tucker is the host, and the entry fee is $10.

Sponsors are: Gone Again Travel, Simply Special by Connie; Copy Atlanta, Atlanta Business Leaders and Go Creative Go.

"Feel free to invite anyone you want," said Wood in an email. "It is an open event, and don't forget to invite your friends that are unemployed. They get in for free, and will thank you for all of the contacts they will make!"

There is a nine hole golf event prior to Business After Hours (3 p.m. for $20). RSVP separately to art@artwoodonline.com.
