I have added a Payment option to the RSVP site, but you do NOT need to pay in order to RSVP. We do ask, however, that you make an advance payment at least 7 days before the event. Any questions on this, please let me know.
For all other information, please read the sections below.
PREVIOUS UPDATES…
Once you have registered, you may now submit your headshot/bio/contact information (details below). To do so, please go to the “Contact Us” page, and fill out all relevant information, upload picture, and hit ’submit!’
Lastly, while we’re on the topic of this Blogsite, if you wish to have your membership details listed on the site (completely optional), please let us know. This is available to ALL MEMBERS, even those who cannot be at the June 4th event.
OK, more to follow soon. Thanks for reading!
ORIGINAL MEETING NOTICE…
This shall be our first SUMMER event. (Yes, I’m aware that Summer does not officially start until 6/21, but we’re a proactive group, are we not?)
This shall be our first OUTDOOR event. (No, not camping; an outdoor area of a restaurant.)
This shall be our first LARGE event. (Goal is 30, but we’ll settle for 20+)
And, this shall be our most VALUABLE event so far, which is why the subtitle is, “Do Not Miss This!” (You have almost two months advance notice, so you’ll have no excuses!)
All that said, here’s what you need to know:
(1) YOU will be choosing the location. Over the next two weeks (deadline April 24), submit to me YOUR idea for the best location for this event. The ideal spot will, of course, be one that satisfies the above criteria, i.e. a restaurant with a large outdoor section that holds 30 people, and which we can reserve for our exclusive use. The restaurant should also be moderately priced, and located somewhere along the NY/NJ border (Montvale, Park Ridge, Pearl River, Old Tappan, Tappan, or Northvale).
(2) I will use my very best judgment to select from among the submitted ideas. Once a location is determined, I’ll reserve it and revise this announcement with further details.
(3) Those attending will submit to me a headshot, along with a brief bio and contact info. Additionally, you’ll have the option of mailing me 40 business cards. Why? Well, rather than spend your time shoving cards into everyone’s pockets, I’ll take care of the publicity for you so you can spend your time enjoying yourself.
(4) Lastly, I’m looking for two assistant organizers to help with marketing the event, and the group in general. If you’re interested, send me a message with how you’d like to be involved.
That’s it for now. I look forward to seeing many of you in June, and especially look forward to meeting many of our NEWEST members!
I’ll be back in touch in two weeks–in the meantime, it’s not too early to RSVP or invite a guest!
Regards,
Matthew Clement
Organizer
