The Lemonhaze Executive Golf Invitational that happened right before MJBizCon last November is not about golf. I mean, it's golf — and exquisite golf at that, but to describe it as a golf tournament does not do it justice. It is an elite, supreme networking event.

It all started at about 8 a.m. when golfers piled into long, black, bus-style limos at the ARIA and other resorts. Attendees were greeted by friendly faces and sponsors offering beverages, including champagne infused with terps. The quick ride to Cascata, just outside Sin City, began and so did the networking.

If you’re trying to move away from reliance on NSAIDs, cannabidiol (CBD) can be an effective alternative. Before jumping aboard the CBD train, there are a few key considerations. Quality Assurance CBD is available in virtually every gas station and corner store. But not all products are equal. Look for certified organic products. These are grown without pesticides and contain fewer toxins that may aggravate inflammation. Search the packaging for a certificate of analysis QR code.
