SUPER SOUPS for Club Dinner this week.

Your copy should address 3 key questions: Who am I writing for? (Audience) Why should they care? (Benefit) What do I want them to do here? (Call-to-Action)


Create a great offer by adding words like "free" "personalized" "complimentary" or "customized." A sense of urgency often helps readers take an action, so think about inserting phrases like "for a limited time only" or "only 7 remaining"!

LAST WEEK'S PROGRAM

Mystic Ice Cream is not just about Ice Cream

Darryl Day, owner of Mystic Ice Cream, shared his background and how he came to be the owner of the very popular ice cream shop on 466A in Fruitland Park. He has let an emerging church use the space on Sunday. Other groups have also been able to use the spot when not open for business.


He found an opportunity to open in downtown Leesburg and work with Beacon College to hire some of their special students.

Ending with a little humor....

AThree Rotary Club members, all a little hard of hearing, were standing by the bowling green in the park.

One remarked to the other

"Windy isn't it?"

"No" the second man replied, "its Thursday". Tthe third man nodded in agreement:

"So am I. Lets have a cup of tea"

Have a great week!
