Hello Lovely Ladies.
I don’t know about you, I thoroughly enjoyed our July meeting – our first in person meeting in a very long time. The vibe was great, the mood was joyful, and the setting was relaxing. We enjoyed a superb speaker, and the meal was delicious!
August is a great summer month – plenty of outdoor activities available and the weather is great this time of year. I’m pleased to experience more sunshine now and take advantage of the everything San Diego has to offer.
With the glorious weather August has to offer, it’s time to return to our much loved summer activities. We’re seeing the return of Nighttime Zoo at the San Diego Zoo, The Old Globe and Moonlight Amphitheatre have new events scheduled, Liberty Station will be hosting the Artwalk this month and the Music Festival comes back to Carlsbad. And then of course, secret word is summer, there are the visits to Balboa Park, sipping cocktails in Old Town, a stroll along the Embarcadero and a bonfire on the beach. We really do live in America’s Finest City!
We are all so pleased to see businesses reopened, and while we need to take care and honor their safety requirements, let us be respectful and especially kind and supporting of the many small businesses in our communities. We continue to support our members and the club. It’s how we roll!
We are so excited for another in-person meeting so I will see you all at Yanni’s on August 19th.
Hugs to you all

Shout-Outs and Testimonials |
|
We may run out of time at our meetings to share our testimonials for each other's services, products, and community announcements. We encourage you to write your praise and mail an email or note to the member who you want to applaud. Send your friends a special email sharing your testimonial about the member you are highlighting. Post your Shout-Out on our RSFBPW Facebook page and on your own FB page.
We offer Shout-outs and testimonial time at the end of many of our meetings, however it depends on the time left after our speaker has concluded their presentation. We do not offer testimonial time at our November and December meetings because of the length of the program. We encourage you to pass out your information, flyers, handouts and community announcements during the open networking time which is between 11:15 a.m. and 11:45 a.m.
You may also want to use your 20 second commercial time during the meeting to share your business event or announcement with the group and invite interested members to pick up a flyer with more details in the back of the room. Thanks for cheerfully working with us!

A Gentle Reminder about Spamming RSFbpw Members |
|
Members and visitors must individually ask each member for permission to place them on any form of mass communication-email blasts, newsletter lists, U.S. Mail lists or group texts. Without each member's individual permission, we consider this type of communication to be an act of spamming. To build long-term relationships with members please write personal notes and emails first and after developing rapport, ask these members only for permission to place them on your mailing list. Thank you for your cooperation. |
|
