Okay - it's been a while! An update on the membership growth I mentioned below - we ended up with a net growth of 11 over the year, including 3 GEM awards, a Ken Pierce Membership Growth award, and Corien Sinclair received the Phil & Vicki Scalisi Membership Award from the District.

We're growing! Our club doubled in size in 2009-10 (from 3 to 6 members), and after one meeting we're up to 9 already this year. Our goal is 12 members by the end of this year...and I'm predicting a GEM award while we're at it...

UPDATE: At our October meeting, 2 more lovely ladies decided to join our ranks. Will we reach our goal by Christmas? If so, we'll set a higher one!

UPDATE: Look at us grow!!! 2 more at our November meeting!!! Goal met, new target needed. Our 20/20 vision - 20 active members. Recruitment & Retention needed to get there.

Thank you to our sponsors!
