Are YOU Coordinating Rough Riser Programs This Year?

These wonderful people have signed up to arrange a month of programs — this is one of the unsung duties, yet our programs educate us about the needs of children in the Cedar Valley which helps us do our mission more effectively.  It’s always great to hear the impact we are making or can make.  And other programs help us be informed citizens of our community!

You won't need a speaker for the first Wednesday of the month, as that is business meeting.  If you’re short on ideas, we often have groups that we sponsor who want to come speak to us, so I can help with suggestions.

You might also consider checking the University of Northern Iowa Speakers Bureau.  They have some fascinating speaker about a whole range of topics.

Here’s the procedure that has worked well this year.  When you have your speakers, send me (Tony Reid) an email with

• Name of speaker
• Organization
• Topic
• Whether they will need a projector

Copy this email to:

• Jim Larson so he can have the correct spelling of the name for his minutes
• Jane Harding so she can send a thank-you note
• Rod Hamer so he’ll know who’s up each meeting
• Publicity Committee:  Michael Davidson, Lynn Barnes, Leigh Zeitz, Phil Hufferd

Thanks, 

Tony Reid
