President's Message
Dear All Achievers,
As you are aware, rather than hold our Invitation to Membership on April 12, we decided to move the event to our June 14 meeting because it conflicted with the Sarasota Chamber's Hob Nob. Several members of our group attended the Hob Nob and promoted our Invitation to Membership - it was great fun!
Our Invitation to Membership is an important event for our Chapter, and members are busy sending out invitations to the event at Shaner's Pizzeria. An added level of excitement will be integrated into the event with awarding scholarships to our 2012 recipients. It should be a great event, and I hope all our members will be able to be in attendance.
For May's meeting, we will enjoy the return of Bob Melberth, who delivered an interesting and informative session earlier this year. We look forward to the dinner with eager anticipation! Remember to spread the word and invite guests that you feel would enjoy meeting our group and learning from our talented speaker. See you soon!
Warmest regards,
Lori Denny
President – All Achievers Chapter of ABWA
