March 2004
Roaming the Region
by
(aka Gloater), RVC Region 3
Hopefully the March newsletters went out early and the last
weekend of February isn’t here yet. If so, you’ve still got time to make it to
the Region 3 Leadership Development Workshop (LDW) being held in Columbus,
Ohio on February 27 - 28, 2004. Currently (end of January) we have 40 RSVPs.
The main feature of this LDW will be the 4-hour Food Safety Course addressing
some of the concerns with preparing food for groups of people. We are targeting
this course toward the people involved with preparing food for our Regional
Gatherings and local group get-togethers. If you are interested, please check
your last month newsletter for LDW specifics or send me an email.
Our ProxyQuest is going well. As I write this, Region 3
still leads the nation in percentage of members submitting proxies. We also
lead in total number of proxies submitted. My thanks to all of you that have
made this happen. However, we still have a long way to go. If you haven’t done
so yet, please submit your proxy so we can quit sending you emails and making
phone calls. If you don’t know what it’s all about, or why you should, please
contact me so we can discuss it.
I am also looking for ProxyQuest Coordinators in all the
local groups to assist in getting their groups, and our region, above and beyond
the 50% level. If any of you are willing to put in some time making phone calls
to local members to help reach our goal I would be greatly appreciative. Please
contact your LocSec (or President) and myself and let us know you are willing to
help. Mensa, Region 3, and your local group need your help; let’s make this
happen.
In spite of an extremely cold month, I did manage to make
it to the Winter Bash in Southeast Michigan Mensa and to the Indianapolis
Regional Gathering (which isn’t in our Region, but within close driving
distance). I’ll be glad when the weather warms up and I can get out and about
again.
