Announcements:
Guests: Rob Reinmuth brought Damen Caldwell to the meeting this morning.
Our board will be seeking nominations next week through December, if you feel like you have a great candidate that is willing to serve for 1 year on the board, please verify that they are willing and if they are, nominate them. We are doing a big push for the position of President and Vice President. If you are interested in filling one of the positions, you can self-nominate.
The Christmas Party is held the first Tuesday of December at 6:00 pm. at the El Paso Club. The sign-up is being passed every week for the next two weeks. Please make sure to get your name on the list! We have great food and lots of fun!
Keep your eyes out for the sign-up for the 2026 Craft Talk sign-up sheet. I’ll bring it for a couple of weeks until I get it posted on our Sign-Up Genius link. The first several weeks of the year are available, grab a slot by calling Karen Heun at 719-660-3787.
We have several categories to fill in the group but our most recent is for an eye doctor. If you know any best-in-class candidates for the group, please invite them to a meeting.
Let’s grow! If you know someone who owns a business whose category is not currently represented in the group, invite them to breakfast. We are always looking for best in class companies who would be an asset to the group.
Chris Waldron is taking pictures of our members for the website. This is a FREE service. If you want to purchase the head shot to use elsewhere, his prices are EXCELLENT!
