Gatherings
(Meetings)
We refer to our meetings as “gatherings”. They are held in January and then every other month. We meet on the second Sunday of the month, from 2:30 – 5:30, unless a change in date is necessary.* The program is as follows:
• 2:30 - 3:15 Socializing & networking
• 3:15 - 3:30 Welcome & Introductions
• 3:30 - 4:45 Planned program (book discussion, speaker, motivational/educational DVD)
• 4:45 - 5:00 Member announcements
• 5:00 - 5:30 Additional networking & clean-up
Gatherings are held at the home of one of the members or a specific venue.* Specific information about each gathering (location, directions, specific activity being book, speaker or DVD) is emailed to members approximately a month before the scheduled date with a reminder emailed a week prior. The RSVP date is the Thursday prior to the specific gathering. For details about our next gathering, click here.
*During the current COVID pandemic, most gatherings are held as virtual (online) meetings.
Members are discouraged from directly selling products and services during gatherings. The exception being invited guest speakers who are members or non-members. However, members are encouraged to announce events or their individual endeavors that would be of interest to those present. Members are also encouraged to network, communicate and support each other individual efforts and businesses during and outside of the gatherings.
