Greetings to my Brothers and Sisters:
Happy Fall. What beautiful weather we are having. I hope all are taking advantage of this.
What a Convention we had. If you did not go, you missed out on a lot. I came home so pumped and full of new ideas. We have started our Quarters for Wounded Warriors jug for Heart of the Community.
The 5/25 Club Party was fun. If you want to join the club, sponsor 5 or more members. Never know what we will come up with next!!!
Congratulations to all the new Fellows and Golden Gavel recipients, and to all the top Districts, Lodges and Chapters.
Let’s talk Membership. Our numbers are down and we need to do so much more.
Are you making those phone calls, writing letters, or do you have an in-Lodge membership campaign in place? We are coming into the 5th month of our year and before you know it we will all be in a rush to sponsor new or contact expired. Membership growth and retention are very important. We want to be NUMBER ONE again.
There is a new video out there for Orientation. Be sure to download it and use it for your Orientation. It is very good.
Are you having fun activities that make members want to come back?
I am very humbled and want to thank everyone that brought baked goods and bought baked goods. All the proceeds go for Membership. The same with the cash pay out at the banquet. Thank you to all who participated.
Congratulations to the new Board of Officers and thank you to the “old” board.
I am just full of thanks. I thank my uncle for asking me to join this great Fraternity 29 years ago. I really gained a bigger family when I joined. WOW!!!!
Just remember RETENTION!
Any questions? Feel free to contact me, if I do not know the answer, I will find out and get back to you.
In Friendship,
Renee LaPoint
