Maureen Condon, AD Middlesex County |
|
When a member of the Needham Breakfast Chapter brought up the
subject of The Barry Boys & Girls Club in Newton needing sponsors for
children to help pay for them to go to camp, she didn't realize the intense
reaction she'd get. The Chapter sprung into action! They passed a hat around
and collected $300.00 dollars for a child to attend a two week camp. This was
such an unexpected gift for the club and is probably the first of what will
become a tradition of givers gain for the Needham Breakfast Chapter. It just
goes to show that there is a lot more to networking than just passing
referrals. |

1 year term testimonial As I visit the chapters this month acknowledging the Top 10% of
the chapters with a Founders' Award, the 4 chapters that I have visited so
far have given positive feedback for going to one year terms. The number one
response was "continuity." A former MA
member who served as President in his chapter, moved to Phoenix 2 years ago.
He immediately joined a chapter and was asked to serve on Leadership. He
glady accepted and later found out that the Region was on annual terms. A
little reluctant, he went through training. Many months went by and we spoke
again only to learn that he couldn't be happier! "It
takes about 3 months for the leadership team to get settled and comfortable.
With 6 months it felt like a disruption, where now the extra time allows us
to promote ideas and work as a team. I can't imagine going back to 6 month
terms!"---Dick Steiman, Grand Networkers, Phoenix, AZ. (Formerly of the
Marlboro Regional Chapter). |

Holden is Golden on Substitute Day |
|
Congratulations to all the chapters that participated in
"Bring Your Substitute Week". The Holden chapter of Golden Givers
had an incredibly successful substitute/visitors day. The President, Jeff
Lerman, did a great job of promoting the event through continuous word of
mouth announcements along with steady e-mails. Eleven
substitutes arrived as visitors and by the end of the meeting the chapter had
3 new applications with numerous others interested! The hard work and the
dedication of all involved really paid off. |
