The sign up sheet for the
Fall Leaderhip Educational Conference and Board of Directors Meeting being held
Sep 19, 20 & 21 at the Country Inn & Suites Hotel by Ayres in Costa
Mesa can be obtained online at www.sjexchangeclub.com/FallConf2003.pdf.
All of the info you need to call the hotel and to register for the conference is included with this sheet. Please don't delay as the hotel must be guaranteed well in advance of the meeting.
Additionally, we are planning to walk to May Garden Chinese Restaurant (1 block) on Saturday evening for dinner. If you want to attend please make sure you fill out the back sheet of the form so we know how many will be attending.
This will be a great opportunity to meet some fun people and prepare for the year.
You've
heard the expression "Every little Bit Helps"? Well the opposite is
true as well. Every little bit can hurt. We got some bad news from St. Claire.
Our attendance at weekly meetings has been so low that they are no longer willing
to let have the space without an 8 person minimum. They are also raising the
cost of the lunch.
In the meantime we need the support of every member to attend our meetings consistently over the next few weeks until we sort this out with the hotel or find a new location. If members have suggestions for other lunch locations, please discuss the options at the next luncheon or contact Rob, Phil or Jerry.
The Board Meetings will generally be conducted on the first Tuesday of each month in lieu of the regular speaker meeting. We will be combining the August and September Board Meetings and conduct them together on August 26th. See the schedule of Captains below.
All S.J. Exchange members are encouraged to attend the Board Meetings.
YES. The list of Captains, Invocators and Finemasters has been changed again and is included with this edition of the Exciter. Please check the schedule to ensure your availability. If you are on deck and cannot attend a meeting, please make arrangements ahead of time to find a replacement. Don't forget to notify Rob Nuddleman about the change so he can update the assignment list.
In an effort to encourage more member involvement and to ease the burden on our President-Elect, Captains are expected to try and find speakers for their appointed day. Captains should coordinate speakers with Jennifer Patrick who will, in turn, notify Rob Nuddleman about the speaker so we can put it in the Exciter.
The Membership Committee is preparing a video presentation to attract new members and inform the public about some of our wonderful projects. The video will include interviews of members regarding their experiences in the Exchange Club. The video segments will be taped over the next couple of weeks before, during and/or after the regular lunch meeting. If you have not already been videotaped, get ready!
DEAR SANTA PROJECT NEEDS HELP . . .
Rob Nuddleman needs volunteers to help organize this year's Dear Santa Project. The project needs someone who can make a few phone calls and help with the scheduling. If you want to help make some child's Christmas merry and bright, contact Rob Nuddleman.
Covenant of Service
Accepting the divine privilege, of single and collective responsibility as life's noblest gift, I covenant with my fellow Exchangites:
To consecrate my best energies to the uplifting of Social, Religious, Political and Business ideals;
To discharge the debt I owe to those of high and low estate who have served and sacrificed that the heritage of American citizenship might be mine;
To honor and respect law, to serve my fellow men, and to uphold the ideals and institutions of my Country;
To implant the life-giving, society-building spirit of Service and Comradeship in my social and business relationships;
To better serve in Unity with those seeking better conditions, better understanding and greater opportunities for all.
