Milestones Correction

2008 Chardonnay Yr End Event Last week, I announced Joanne Segovia's hole in one on January 12.  I gave her a hard time for forgetting to tell me in her first email where she got it - then I forgot to put it in the eBlast!!!  It was the third hole at Buchanan in Concord.  Sorry, Joanne.
Member-Get-A-Member Campaign
Win a one-year free membership!

We're starting the year with the Member-Get-A-Member (MGAM) Campaign.  From now until the end-of-the-year event in October every member who recruits a new member for our chapter and is recorded as the recruiter on the EWGA website (by entering your name on the new member's application form in the appropriate area) will be eligible for a variety of prizes.  The grand prize of a one year Classic-level membership will go to the member who recruits the most new members (minimum 3 new members).  Two runners up will receive either Nike sunglasses (value $99) or Nike watch (value $79).  All remaining recruiters will be eligible for the remaining prizes donated by Nike through a drawing.  For each new member you recruit, your name will be entered into the drawing.  The more members recruited the more chances to win!  All prizes will be awarded at the end-of-the-year event.  The Membership Chair and her committee members are not eligible for any of these prizes. 

Start recruiting!  The kickoff event is a great place to bring your friends!  In addition, the names of new members who join at the kickoff will be entered into a drawing for a special prize at the kickoff.

Any questions should be directed to Cathy Pementell at membership@ewganeb.org
