July 2010

Greetings!

Welcome Summer!

It is the time for vacations, family BBQ's, long evenings on the porch and walks along the beach after work. Nothing beats living in San Diego. On behalf of your PWI board we wish you a safe summer full of good times and fresh air. Drive safely, use plenty of sun block and watch those kids in the pool..stay in front of the lifeguard station when in the ocean and...hey just be careful out there!

 Summer also brings our July 9th Luncheon with two of our members on the most fascinating subjects to kick off our summer! Who doesn't want to know about Technology Zen and how to balance our life with technology! There must be an app for that right ? Naimesh will tell us how.

 In addition, Julie Brown will talk about Personal Branding and how to position ourselves for success by putting our best "us" out there.  I hope to see you there to learn, listen and share.

Don't forget to sign up for our Golf Tournament on August 13th at Carleton Oaks! Our committee has been working hard for several months to make it another smashing success! Thank you to everyone who has signed up to be a sponsor already. Your generosity is so appreciated.

So be safe out there, learn about technology and a life balance and how to brand yourself as the best you can be. We can't wait to see you, be there for you, celebrate with you and support you.

Warm regards, 
 
Cathi Marx, ALCM, COSS, CHS-V  
PWI President 2010
