Announcing the Passport to Discovery Program

Attendees at last night's meeting (with a fabulous presentation by Stephanie Danner of OfficeTeam on Ten Tips For Communicating With Your Boss) received a very special item last night - their Passport to Discovery! This passport will be stamped at all future events - networking events, computer classes, regular meetings, etc. and will document your involvement with the chapter. The top three stamp holders will receive prizes at our June meeting and we'll also have a wild card drawing for a fourth prize drawn from all eligible entries.

If you weren't able to make it to the meeting, you'll want to be sure to pick your passport up at the first available opportunity or contact Lisa Olson, chapter president, to arrange to receive yours!

Great door prizes were given out last night including a gift certificate for a $50 dinner and a gift certificate for a two night stay at Country Inn and Suites, which was our featured vendor of the month. Also given out were professional development books and audio tapes, as well as two $5 gift cards for Starbucks.

You never know what fabulous opportunities await you at a Two Rivers Chapter meeting!
