 Bring a Guest to Rotary October 11th Speaker - Lenexa Mayor Julie Sayers At last week's meeting I announced an upcoming event called (until I come up with something catchier) "Bring a Guest to Rotary Day", which will happen at our October 11 meeting. Our speaker that day will be Lenexa Mayor Julie Sayers. It will be just a regular (hopefully smooth-running) meeting without being touted as a recruitment event (even though I hope that it is one). I am asking that every member attend that meeting if you possibly can, and to bring at least one guest. This guest can be a neighbor, a co-worker (paid or volunteer), a spouse or partner, a son or daughter or friend who lives in or close to Lenexa. Please don't sell this as a recruiting exercise, just an opportunity for a free lunch with friendly people, a break in their routine, and a chance to see what Rotary is about. There will be no hard selling at the meeting, and no pressure after the meeting. It is just my hope that some percentage of the guests will like what they see at the meeting and be motivated to come back. Almost every Rotarian initially joined after someone they knew and liked invited them to a meeting, and then felt good after they left. That's what I hope will happen with some (all would be real good) of our guests on October 11. We must continually load our pipeline of potential members to survive and thrive as a club. Feel free to call or email me with questions or suggestions. Yours in Rotary service, Moe Cougher (913) 530-5316 |
