Greetings,

We are just one week away from our next meeting and I am looking forward to seeing all of the members and meeting our guests.  This meeting kicks off our Membership Drive.  As a leader, I choose to lead by example, so I have looked through my address book and sent a personal invitation to people I think might be interested in a chance to network with others in the insurance industry, a chance to advance their career, a chance to learn something about insuring the things we drive whether for personal or business, a free meal...

If you haven't made your reservation yet or haven't invited a guest, please do so and contact Anna Andersen 603-626-8182 by Wednesday 9/10. T-Bones is the place to be 5:30 p.m. Monday September 15th with a delicious dinner being served at 6 p.m.

Today I received information about the next fundraiser for 2010 Regional Conference and there is a "Challenge" included.  This will be a Mini-Golf Tournament in West Lebanon NH on 9/27/08.  We need volunteers to work, sponsors, and players to compete to make this a successful event.  Lets put together a team!  We can ride up together in a car or two.  We have the chance to win $100 for our treasury as well as personal prizes for participating.  I'll have the details at the meeting Monday night.

The other NAIW NH Associations will be having some interesting topics at their meetings.  If you don't mind a short road trip, you might want to sign up for one of them.
