A short summary of our discussions
yesterday at lunch:
Membership Drive –
The most important thing for our
club to accomplish is to increase our membership.
One way we can do that is to talk to
people - about your club, what we are trying to accomplish, about Optimism.
Then invite them to come to a lunch meeting and get involved.
Another way to grow the club is a
membership ‘event’ like our planned event on 9/24. In order to make that work,
I need to get the spreadsheet/occupation lists that were sent out back so we
can put together a mailing list. We are running out of time, so please look the
list over, put down any names you think of, and get it back to me ASAP.
Optimist concession stands –
Boise noon club is looking for help
manning their concession stands at the Optimist football facility on Hill road
again this year. This was a good fundraiser for our club last year, in order to
commit again this year I need to know who is interested and can commit to some
time on the weekends from 9/10 to 10/15. Whatever you can or want to do whether
it is 1 Saturday for a 4 hour shift or every Saturday for all day. Again – let
me know ASAP.
Safety day project –
Has tentatively been re-scheduled
for 10/11/11 from 5 to 7 at the Landing. We need volunteers to help at the
event (which will include being there an hour or two early to set up) and we
need someone to chair/coordinate the event. Let me know what you can help with…
The new officers will assume the
‘reins’ on 10/1/11 and Ben is working on a time and place for an installation
banquet/dinner. If you have any ideas or can help let him
know.
Thanks,
Mike
Mike Harris and Gretchen Brown, Co-presidents
