Leadership Kitsap's Annual Three Names Campaign - Extends to March 26
 
Leadership Kitsap has received a number of leads for candidates for the Class of 2011.  Thank you to everyone who has submitted names. The deadline to send in your nominations has been extended to March 26th.  All the nominations have either been contacted via e-mail or have been sent a hard copy letter. It would be greatly appreciated if you could follow up with the people you have nominated.
 
As an alumnus of Leadership Kitsap, we are asking you to take just a few moments to refer three people (friends, colleagues, co-workers, board members, etc.) who you think would benefit from participating in the Leadership Kitsap program.

It does not need to be people you work with. It can be anyone you think would benefit from attending the program. All we need is as much contact information as you can give and we'll send an informational email or letter to them.
 
WE WILL NOT BOTHER ANYONE AT HOME OR AT WORK AND WILL NOT MAKE ANY SORT OF SALES PITCH
 
Leadership Kitsap's goal is to expand its reach to our community in a meaningful way...through our alumni. That means YOU are a key to making this a success. If every LK alumni contributed one name, that would be 342 names...wow!

Just follow this simple process for making your secure online referral:
      
 
(NOTE: For each entry hit the "Back Arrow" on your Internet browser, input new information and resubmit)

ATTENTION! HERE'S HOW TO GET SOMETHING FOR FREE: The person with the most referrals* by March 26, 2010 will win a choice of a black nylon Leadership Kitsap briefcase/travel bag or an LK fleece vest.

*valid referral will need at least a first and last name and email address.

Thank you for your commitment to Leadership Kitsap!

Silent Action to Benefit the Hanten-Berger Scholarship Fund - Kiana Lodge

LKAA, in conjunction with the LK Foundation, will be holding a silent auction prior to this year's graduation ceremony on June 22nd, from 5-6 PM, at Kiana Lodge. 
 
The silent auction will benefit the Hanten-Berger Scholarship Fund, which allows LKAA to help defray some of the costs for deserving students from the incoming Leadership Kitsap Program.  Your participation will greatly enhance our ability to assist emerging leaders for the coming curriculum year.  We are looking for donations for this silent auction. 
 
If you have a silent auction donation for this event, please contact Ned Newlin or Kathy Nelson by June 8th.  We look forward to seeing many of our alumni at the graduation ceremony to support our newest graduates and alumni members!
