Membership status

[Corey Matelli]

Hi Everyone.

 

I tried to write to Lanny last week, but it bounced back, so I don't think he got it.  I've come to the place where I have to make a difficult decision.  Due to work and some family health issues, I just do not have the time to commit to the membership requirements of BNI and our chapter.  I don't like doing things part way, and lately, that's all I've been able to do because of other commitments.  That's been weighing on me.

 

Despite that, I have all your business cards and contact information, and I will always consider you as a vital part of my network.  I hope that you will keep me in the front of your mind when you come across seniors in need, as well as their loved ones. 

 

If and when the day comes when I can add another element to my schedule as important as being part of a networking group, you can bet the BNI Synergy chapter will be the first place I look. 

 

I've enjoyed your professionalism and your friendship.  I've learned something from each one of you, and I hope our association can and will continue. 

 

Now for a klutzy segue.  As most of you know, at least, I'm part of an annual patriotic production through my church.  This year, we're taking things to an exciting new level.  This year's performance will be at the Shoreline Amphitheater in Mountain View on Sunday, June 29.  Yes, THAT Shoreline Amphitheater.  I'm telling you for two reasons.  One, I'd love to personally invite you and your entire family to attend.  Admission to the show is absolutely free ($5 for parking).  The event starts at 5 pm with lots of family activities, including FOOD and some good ol' Americana.  The show will start at 8 pm, punctuated by an exciting laser light show (Shoreline wouldn't let us do fireworks).  All the details can be found at the link below (including a picture of yours truly singing...see if you can find it).

The second reason I'm telling you this is because there is a great opportunity for advertising you and your business.  We are expecting anywhere from 8,000 to 15,000 people to this show, so your ad can reach many thousands in one shot in our free program which will be handed out everyone in attendance.  I want my friends to have this great opportunity before anyone else, so please pardon the awkward invitation.

 

There are four different levels of sponsorship, which I'll list here.  If you have any questions, please contact Elena at miss_...@comcast.net, or 415-577-6133 or 650-345-4511.
