Hello RSFBPW Ladies,
Welcome to November, and Happy Holidays 2024. I am so looking forward to the next few months and the hustle bustle of the holiday season.
I have set up some end of year goals for my business, as well as planned some fun activities with friends and family. Have you thought ahead about what its going to take to end the year strong in both your professional and your personal life?
Mary Anne Radmacher said "May your walls know joy, may every room know laughter, and every window open to great possibility". This is my wish for each of you this season, to make room for the joy and be open to every possibility for growth. I am so grateful for each of you and for the continued opportunity to learn and grow from you through our interactions and relationships. Don't forget to do something nice for yourself this month!
As always, I am looking forward to connecting with you all at our luncheon on Thursday, November 21st. Be ready to cross some names off your holiday gift list with our Holiday Bazaar.
Please remember that we have open networking before each luncheon, beginning at 11 AM where you can meet and greet. You can shop and purchase goods from our members. At our November luncheon, we will have about a dozen members selling merchandise for our holiday bazaar. This is our Annual Betty's Boutiques Holiday Bazaar. You can read more about the Bazaar and the Charity Raffle below as well as see the our menu and register for the luncheon.
Looking forward to seeing you all on November 21!
Warmly,
Jill Harris

Our November Luncheon and Gratitude Celebration | |
Come to our November Annual Betty's Boutique Holiday Bazaar and join our Gratitude Celebration
Please join us for our November luncheon for our annual Betty's Boutique Holiday Bazaar and our Gratitude Celebration.
Every November, we host our annual holiday bazaar as part of our luncheon-meeting. We decided to honor one of our former members, Betty Potter Englishbee, who was actively involved as a Board member and volunteer for over twenty years. She was the one who kept all of the RSFBPW Association organized "behind the scenes." To remember Betty's dedication, we named the Holiday Bazaar after her. We now call it Betty's Boutique Holiday Bazaar.
You will be able to shop from many of our members. You will also have the opportunity to network and share your gratitude for the lovely friendships you may be developing or have developed in our group, due to your RSFbpw membership throughout the year.
We also look forward to celebrating "Thanks-Giving" with you in November at our luncheon.

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.

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. | |
