BREAKFAST NETWORKING & MEETING: Ray Isaac's 6 E's of Success
Thursday March 12th
7:00am - 8:30am
Penfield Country Club
The Penfield Business Association welcomes Ray Isaac, third generation president of Isaac Heating & Air Conditioning, for a educational and motivating breakfast meeting.
Over the past eight years, Isaac Heating has more than doubled its revenue, up 20% in 2014. That increase followed a deliberate effort to change the corporate culture to "employee first." Ray will explain how that occurred. He will end with a discussion on the "6 E's" that promote employee growth.
A hot breakfast buffet will be available at 7:00am. The PBA business meeting will begin promptly at 7:30am followed by Ray's presentation at 7:45am. Event will conclude by 8:30am. Reservations are required in advance.
Members, please be sure your membership dues for 2015 are paid to qualify for member pricing for this event.
Members $13; Non-members $18; Premium Members - first attendee free, additional employees at member rate.

 Penfield Symphony Orchestra's "Very Special Guests" ConcertFebruary 23rd at 7:30pm
Penfield High School Auditorium
The third concert of the PSO's 59th season is sponsored by Penfield's Charles Finney School. It will feature Juliana Athayde (Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra's Concertmaster) and Erik Behr (Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra's Principal Oboe) in the Baroque masterpiece "Concerto in C minor for Violin and Oboe."
Opening with Rossini's exciting "Overture to La Cenerentola," the concert will conclude with Beethoven's magnificent Symphony No. 8 in F major.
A reception will follow the concert, so audience members will be able to meet our soloists and musicians. Tickets are $14 for adults and $12 for seniors, and should be ordered as soon as possible, since this concert may be a sell-out with these stellar performers.
Students of any age with student i.d. may attend the concert free, so this is an ideal opportunity to bring the family along for an evening of classical entertainment.

 Membership Committee seekschatty people persons!
The work of the PBA is accomplished through the dedication and hard work of committees formed to manage different projects throughout the year. As with all volunteer organizations, our success depends largely on the willingness of our membership to participate on these committees and make things happen.
The Membership Committee could use your help! They are specifically looking for people with the gift of gab who would enjoy sharing with other business owners the value of PBA Membership, and follow up with new members to ensure their needs are met.
Here's the "Official Description" of the Membership Committee:
"Actively recruits new businesses through personal visits and informing businesses of the value of membership, oversees the renewal process each year, works with Marketing to develop appropriate benefit materials, sends welcome packages and inputs new member data into database, receives and responds to membership inquiries. Acts as an ambassador of the PBA and Penfield business community."
If you would like to volunteer to work on the membership committee and share your time and talent with your community, contact us and we will connect you with the Committee Chair.
