 Message From The President
Dave nance
David Nance, President
  
 On January 15th, GIPHCC was honored to welcome Denny Smith as our luncheon speaker.  Thank you again, Denny, for your insight and inspiring words.
 
We are revamping our Vendors Expo this year in hopes of increasing attendance and awareness of GIPHCC.  Please reserve your space early as we expect a huge turnout.  A sign up form will be arriving via email shortly.
 
I have confirmed that our April speaker will be David Niezgodski, Indiana PHCC president.  We will also be recognizing our Esprit de Corp honorees and the GIPHCC Contractor at this meeting.
 
Our February meeting should be very engaging and informative as it will be a round table type format that Brenda Dant has been working on.  I am very excited about the ideas and information that I might gain from it.
 
See you at Primo's on the 19th. 
 
    
  Dave Nance,
  President, GIPHCC
We're Begging You...
                              
PLEASE make reservations for the luncheon in advance. This helps Primo's with the lunch count and makes check in onsite easier.  
 
Fax your registration information to Ann at 577-4574 or email her at [email protected].

Membership Growth

 

In October 2011 we set a goal to increase contractor and associate memberships by 5 companies in each category.  In 2012 we actually increased both categories by 13 each!  However, this is a goal we must consciously strive to attain.

This year we're starting out around mid -40's for contractor members and at 30 already paid associates; however, there are several traditional associate members who have not paid their 2014 dues as of yet.

 

We adhere to the KISS philosophy (Keep It Simple, Stupid).  Red name tags signify prospective new members at meetings.  They receive information booklets and a free first lunch.  The name tag color is also so that old, established members will greet them, make them feel welcome, and sit with them and introduce to fellow members during lunch.  

Established members may also be entitled to a free lunch if they bring a prospective new member to lunch.  Both the member and the prospective member get the lunch free. 

We can't allow ourselves to become complacent and rest on our laurels.
