We all know the best way to survive in a changing market is to first use the resources you already have. “If you fail to plan, you plan to fail!” some wise person once said. So this year, I want you all to know what to expect from me as your Ways & Means Chair. My job is to MAKE YOU MONEY! I need your help to earn money that will in turn, provide us all with opportunities we may not have been able to afford on our own. “United we Stand, Divided we Fall.”
I will not bombard you with requests for help constantly throughout the year. I will, however, strive to meet with each and every one of you to find out how you can help me make our organization great. We all joined the SLWCR for a reason. I want to help you reach that goal while helping me earn the money to pay for our dreams. “We only have two things in this life with measurable value, TIME or MONEY. If you can not help me with a donation, you can simply donate your time! It will be well worth it, I promise;D RESISTANCE IS FUTILE!!!!”
My first BIG idea is ReGift/ReInvest in your SLWCR*!*
ReGift/ReInvest: Bring your unwanted gifts to the January SLWCR lunch in a small unmarked bag or just drop them off at my office (WATSON big building on Hancock directly across from Super Target)! Admit it…we all have gifts that are perfectly nice but just aren’t something we would have picked for ourselves. Why hide it away, afraid to hurt someone’s feelings, give them to me! I will turn them into delightful Guest speaker gifts, Gift baskets for raffles, and door prizes for future events. “One man’s Trash is another man’s Treasure!”
So ladies, and gentlemen; “Please give me your gym memberships, your smoked meats and canned fruit, clip on ties and yes even those self help books…I can and will use them for the good of SLWCR and get them out of your house at the same time!” This year will be the best ever, because we won’t accept anything less.
“We are prepared, our goals defined…We will Overcome in 2009!!!!!”
SPREAD THE WORD. FORWARD THIS E-MAIL TO ANYONE THAT YOU KNOW CAN AND WILL BE A DRIVING FORCE IN OUR INDUSTRY IN 2009.
Thank you…see you in ’09 if not sooner
HAPPY HOLIDAYS
