So much more to come!
Can you believe we are already halfway through 2013? It's been a busy year so
far, and our committees have more events planned for the rest of the year for
our members to enjoy. It's amazing how many people are involved in making this
organization run, and how exciting it is to experience how hard everyone works
together to make things happen.
June was
a very special luncheon as we celebrated our scholarship recipients. Special thanks to Jennifer Wojtas,
Scholarship Chair, and her committee, for making it a very special day. A sincere
thanks to all of you that have generously donated gifts for the scholarship
raffle at monthly luncheons. The following people or organizations donated in

Our
mixer at Metalmark was fantastic. Thanks to the Fresno Chamber of Commerce for
letting us partner at this event. I really enjoyed seeing my fellow FWN members
and making new friends. If you set a goal to become more involved in the network
this year, have you accomplished it? If not, why not? Take the time now to find
out about our activities and committees.
Save the Date!! Join us for our fun Net at Noon Mini-Trade Show on August 13th
from 11am to 1pm at TorNino’s. This year’s theme is: “Back to School - Shaping
the Future”. Join us as we “SHOP” the network and get to know our members.
“Sponsorship” opportunities are available to Network Members with either a
display table to showcase your business or sponsorship of a lunch table. Both
give you an opportunity to get in the spirit of “Back to School” and “Shape the
Future” of kids at Evangel Home going back to school. Sport your favorite college team colors,
or dress up as a nerd, but don’t forget to bring some school supplies for
Evangel Home while sharing your business/products/services with Network Members and guests. Check out our
website for details or email.
The
possibilities for networking and connecting are endless. You’d be surprised at
how you can promote your business and expand your market – from donating a
scholarship gift to attending a mixer to participating in the mini-trade show. Becoming
involved in one way or another is the key to your successful investment of
membership.
Check
out our online calendar and LIKE us on Facebook, there are so many exciting
networking opportunities coming up that you won’t want to miss! Do you have a story
about how your FWN has benefited you? Please contact me at (559) 307-9981 or email, I would love to hear from you.
