Dear EWN Members & Friends:

 

What a fabulous evening our GNE event was, marking a wonderful close to our 2010-2011 EWN year.  If you were in attendance, I hope you enjoyed yourself and walked away with at least one nugget.  For me, the nugget was "No hesitation."  What was yours?

Many thanks to Kim Bensen, our keynote speaker & new EWN member, and David Smith, our emcee, for making the event such a success.  And a hearty thank you also to the women "behind the curtain" - Rita Smircich and Chris Brandt, without whom we wouldn't have had such a great event.  The flowers and gardens from Bea Schriver and Sandy LaMarre made everything beautiful - and thanks to all our sponsors too!

Kudos to all the EWN Board and Committee members who stayed the course this year, contributed their energy and talents, and helped in many ways large and small.  And last but not least, thank you always, Members & Friends, for your support of EWN.   

 

Enjoy the summer and see you in September!

  

Anne Wilkins

EWN President

EWN "Meeting of the Minds" Mastermind Program - Summer Break  

The EWN Mastermind program for this year will be coming to a close during the summer months. I would like to thank all of the facilitators and participants whose contributions helped make the program a huge success. In particular, I wish to acknowledge Marian Edvardsen for all her hard work and dedication in coordinating the program this year - and also extend a sincere welcome to Laura Spisek, who will coordinate Mastermind for 2011-2012.

 

Within the next two months Laura will be sending out a questionnaire via email to learn about your experiences in the program. Please take a moment to respond.  Your replies are anonymous and we want your input to make next year's program even better!
