| A Message from President Jane; | |
| "Dear Sertomans: Our goal this year is to increase membership and broaden the membership base. Please be | |
| thinking of inviting your friends, neighbors, work colleagues and people from different backgrounds. They don't | |
| need to look like us, or be of the same church or political party. They just need to be good people who care about | |
| our community, want to give back to it and at the same time they can make new friends and have fun with us! | |
| Focus on reaching out to younger people that are still working. Even if they think our 6:30 am meeting is too | |
| early for them, invite them to our social functions and fundraising functions. We have our Christmas party on | |
| Dec 6th and you can invite people to come to Bingo in November. If guests can join us in celebrating and having | |
| fun, they might be wooed into coming to our early Friday meetings. Let's give it a try! I sent out personalized | |
| invitations to non-Sertoma friends about the Antique Tractor Show via email and six of them showed up! So try it, | |
| you might like it! We can give a prize for the member who brings the most guests to our morning meetings. Just | |
| don't think about it, we need action folks! Let's go do it!" | |
