Skal International MIAMI Newsletter June 2009 Club #65

Message from the President

Dear Skalleagues,

Once again our hosts (Regent Bal Harbor) did a fantastic job for our May meeting. Thank you Patricia Bradley and the Regent.
 
Since February of this year, our club has grown by 8 new members. Please welcome them:

• Hamid Abdulhafid
• Laura Blanc
• Cinnamon Broceau
• Patricia Bradley
• Maria Diez
• Alan Seidman
• Balendra Nagesvaran
• Kristin Sofge

We are continuing our membership drive with an incentive. We want each of you to introduce a new member to our club. We have two, member, unpaid events (July-November) for the balance of the year. For each new member you bring into the organization, you will receive a credit to attend the unpaid event or to bring guests.
 
Summer is normally a slower period of time for our industry. We are focusing July on a family event. August presents a terrific opportunity to network with other SKALleagues in our Region at the Region 4 Conference and Golf weekend  in Tampa. In September we ramp up our activities as we go into fall and the New Year.
 
I look forward to seeing all of you at our June meeting at past President Ramon Antelo's Hilton Bentley Beach Hotel.

Yours in SKAL,
Nina
