November Luncheon Re-Cap

This month’s luncheon was so full of new networkers every seat was filled!

Susan Uphold had some good luck winning both the member raffle of a free acupuncture treatment from Andrea Deardorff of Inner Garden Acupuncture and $44 in our 50/50 raffle.

Exhibit tables were full of member items for display as well as a full table display including desserts from our luncheon sponsor, Genevieve Le Bel of Celebrate Today…the Superchick Way! And she definitely showed us some amazing examples of her superchick work. Genevieve’s creativity is matched by her enthusiasm and anyone meeting her could see she would bring a spark to any event. She left us with a list of 10 party planning tips and stomachs full of great treats. For more information check out her website or blog at www.celebrate2da.com

This month we were pleased to award Cathy Paretti of the Gallery School in Pottstown with a check for $3000 from funds raised during our Annual Halloween Party at Country Creek Winery. Cathy let us know that this money would go towards their scholarship fund where they already have a waitlist of children who cannot afford classes and are interested as so many schools in the area have cut funding for the arts. Many thanks again to all the WRN members and sponsors who made this year’s event a great success. For more information on the Gallery School visit www.galleryonhigh.com

Our speaker this month was Annie Stone of Mind Matters Coaching. Annie addressed some of the things that contribute to stress in our daily lives and how to go from feeling like we were “losing our minds” to finding it and using it wisely. She showed us how to be an expert at your own thoughts connecting with people, accomplishing goals, completing tasks and how to find overall joy in the journey. Annie showed us an example of her Intentional Creation profile which the 15 minute profile is available on our site with a free 20 minute follow up consultation by Annie. For more information about Annie visit her website at www.mindmatterscoaching.com

We hope everyone had a great time, made some valuable new connections and look forward to seeing you in December!
