     September 2016        NEWS BLAST 
WOW, was that fun!  Thank you once again for the wonderful response to the 2016 Leadership Training Retreat "Shine" held in Ontario, CA from August 19-20, 2016.  If you enjoyed Leading Women, or Lighthouse Leadership, or Our Iceberg is Melting, or AAA Fundraising, those presentations will be available for you on our GWR website this weekend.  And...if you really loved the interactive puzzle or the "impossible is possible" (chairs) teambuilding fun, they are there too!  Please use them to continue to build the club you love!

These other important documents are available now:
