It is great to see the new professions that have joined our group within the last 6-8 months. We did hit 20 members briefly, and would like to get back over that number. Please keep your eyes and ears open for some great people that our group could pass referrals to.

During Monte's presentation he shared with us his project, Wagons for Warriors. This project provides basic supplies for wounded veterans and their families. These people don't have anything so any donation is appreciated.

If you would like to donate something, review the donation list and get the items to Monte at a future meeting. All items will be delivered t Walter Reid Hospital on June 15, 2015.

Thanks Monte for bringing such a great program to our group!

Brian shared an educational minute at the April 30 meeting. The topic was "Networking Through Service." He suggested the best networking isn't always the formal structure of a networking group or an event, but informally through helping others. People who engage in networking for the purpose of "what's in it for me?" they will be unsuccessful long term. If they seek ways to help others, the results of their networking will be much greater.

He shared some thoughts from a blog by Jeff Goins about networking (PDF version). Please consider seeking ways to help others to improve your networking.

Due to the cancellation of school today by Lawrence Township, our meeting will also be cancelled. Stay safe and we look forward to seeing everyone next week.

A new leadership team was proposed and approved at this morning's meeting. Outgoing president presented the slate and after a brief discussion the following leadership team was approved. There was a motion approved to create a separate marketing committee rather than having them be an extension of the membership committee.
