NEW Y’s MEN
This has been an outstanding Membership Week. We are delighted to announce the addition of five new Members this past week to our rapidly growing and dynamic organization.

- Thank you to all Y’s Men Members who have “recruited and referred” their colleagues, friends, and relatives to Y’s Men of Westport/Weston. We are fortunate to welcome so many new, talented, committed and engaged Members
- If you have not yet referred a prospective new member or a guest to visit Y’s Men, this is the time to make your calls and visits to qualifying prospects. Let’s continue making May 2024 a successful Membership Month by referring new members!

MEMBERSHIP TABLE
As you know, the Y’s Men Membership Table is located at Saugatuck Congregational Church every Thursday morning from September 1 to May 16, 2024, as you enter the Hall on the right. Please stop by the table before and after the meeting as we have current important information and literature for you to take with you. The Membership Team is also there to answer any Membership questions that you may have. There are also sign-up sheets there for Y’s Men Social Events when scheduled.
For new Members or any Member who does not have the Username and Password for the Y’s Men website, please stop by the Membership Table at the Thursday morning meeting or call Ron Holtz at 203-993-4970.
Y’s MEN MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE
This has been a highly successful and exciting Y’s Men Membership Year. We have now inducted 130 new Y’s Men Members since June 1, 2023. A special “Thank You” to those who have served as Membership Ambassadors this year as well as to our Technology and Finance Teams for efficiently processing the new applications.
I will be completing my Term as Membership Committee Chairman on May 30, 2024. I welcome any suggestions from our Members on any Membership related issues or ideas that you may have. Thank you for all the support this year, and we look forward to continued Membership recruiting, engagement and retention success in the future.
VOLUNTEERS
For new members and legacy members - we are seeking volunteers to assist in our many activities and committees. If you are a newer member, this is a great way to meet other members and become more involved and engaged in Y’s Men.
For more information on Volunteer opportunities, please contact our A.D. (Activities Director) and Immediate Past President, Baxter Urist at burist@optonline.net
NEW MEMBER LUNCHEON
For all new Y’s Men Members who joined between November 1, 2023 to the present, you are cordially invited to join your fellow members on Thursday, May 30, 2024 from 11:30 am to 1:15 pm.
The luncheon will be held at Gabrielle’s of Westport, 27 Powers Court (adjacent to the Westport Country Playhouse).
Following the luncheon, you may join us for a “Backstage Tour” of the Westport Country Playhouse from 1:30 pm to 2:30 pm. Any legacy members not coming to the luncheon are invited to join the “Backstage Tour” of the Playhouse at 1:30 pm on May 30th.
Invitations have been sent this past week and RSVPs are required. If you have not RSVP’d by this coming week, you will not have a reservation. There is no charge for this group.
SPEAKER/PROGRAM COMMITTEE
The Speaker/Program Committee brings to the Y’s Men weekly Thursday morning meetings a roster of speakers who are experts in their fields, good presenters, and fun to listen to. Demand to speak at Y’s Men meetings is quite high. If you enjoy picking up the phone, connecting with a stranger, and pitching them on speaking to the Y’s Men, you are needed for this Committee.
We are seeking Y’s Men volunteers to join the committee as we gear up for the new Y’s Men year beginning June 1, 2024, through May 31, 2025. All meetings will be held on Zoom. We are looking particularly for members who have potential contacts with interesting speakers who can address our Membership on a variety of subjects that could be of interest to them.
If you are interested please email Ron Holtz at ronholtz.ysmen@gmail.com or call at 203-993-4970.
