PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
   
Last week our guest speaker was Greg Gutkowski from 3CLICKS. Greg is a seasoned digital media strategist and the author of "Digital Tsunami". It was interesting to hear how technology has transformed through the decades and how digital revolution will impact our jobs and our businesses.

We had another great Table Talk networking meeting on Wednesday. What's exciting is that there is actually business being shared as a result of these meetings. They are the 3rd Wednesday every month. Come share business with your fellow members.  
 
Don't forget our Meet-a-Member event is this week (more details below).

MONTHLY TABLE TALKS
   
Remember that we are holding our monthly "Table Talk" every third Wednesday of the month. At these meetings, we will forgo having a Spotlight Speaker and instead use the time to facilitate networking and business growth directly from your lunch table, using a set of structured discussion questions. Our next Table Talk will be Wednesday, July 18.

Among winners at this course were Gary Player, Tony Jacklin and Don January.
