President's
Message
Steve Shinn GCP,
UDCR
Homework
Remodels
I would like
to say I am very proud of the proactive job our
Board of Directors is doing to energize our
organization. As a result other creative
thinking, we announced at our last meeting that
for the first time in our Chapter's history, we
will be doing a drawing for a free local
membership for anyone who recruits a new member.
This means that if you bring in one or two new
members, you will be entered in to the drawing
for each new member. If you bring in three, you
will be out of the drawing because you will have
earned a free local membership.
This month
we have a new announcement to help our members
in their recruitment efforts. We agreed to make
May, our Spring Recruitment Month. To encourage
new members and make everyone's recruitment
efforts easier, there will be no door charge for
any guest at our May meeting. I encourage all of
our members to invite everyone that may have
interest in joining our Chapter. This will apply
to all guests, including anyone who many have
attended a meeting prior.
NARI is the only national
organization dedicated to the remodeling
industry. By standing together and working as an
industry we all grow professionally. Recruiting
new members will help our organization, with our
new members and all of us as members. Plus it
couldn't hurt if you ended up with a free local
membership due to your networking efforts. I
look forward to seeing you and your guest at our
May meeting.

Get To Know You!
The easiest way to get to know your NARI
members is to volunteer to work the Welcome
Table. Simply come a little early and work
the table until 6:15pm. And they meet you! It's
easy!
Want to volunteer, but don't know where to
begin? How about an hour a month helping special
events? Or making some calls on the Calling
Committee. Perhaps you want to collect cans or
tools at a NARI meeting for a needy cause.
Contact me and we can make it
happen. |
