LEADERSHIP/TRAINING SEMINAR IN GREENSBORO

The State Association will conduct an Orientation/Leadership Seminar for each Lodge’s newly and to be elected Exalted Ruler, Secretary, other officers and interested Elks on Saturday, February 19, 2011 at Greensboro Lodge #602, 2201 West Cornwallis Drive, 336-288-5100. All Lodge officers are encouraged to attend and all others are welcomed.

The Seminar will begin promptly at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday, February 19, 2011 and will conclude by 4:00 p.m.

The purpose of this Seminar is to help the newly elected officers be informed about their responsibilities and how to make a plan for a successful year. We suggest that you bring all new officers and trustees so the teamwork will begin early for your Lodge.

A lot will be going on in addition to the seminar. PGER Jack Frost will be in attendance and meeting with many Elks. Bill Peloquin will be meeting briefly with his new committee chairman as President Hood will be following up on loose ends. The Trustees will be in attendance & assisting with the program, DD’s and newly recommended DD’s and also the, current & nominated District VP’S will be conferring and participating. This will be one of NC Elks most action packed days of the year. A “Dutch” Lunch will be served.

Last year’s Conference was the best attended yet (146), but we want to have every Lodge represented with at least the Exalted Ruler, Secretary and as many other Officers and members as possible to attend.

We again plan to have the entire program that will be presented on a flash drive along with as much general information as possible, such as: Officers & Directors, Program and Project Manuals, Lodge program guides, By-Laws, and GL Statutes.

Information, updates, and agenda will be posted www.ncelks.org prior to 2/19/11.

We want to see you there!
