Pacesetter "Training" Next Week

Hi all--

Just a reminder. . .

Pacesetter Campaign "Training"

Thursday, June 19th

Lincoln Country Club

3:30pm - 5pm

Hors' dourves (and cash bar)

This training is primarily for Pacesetter campaigns. If you run a Pacesetter campaign, you should have received an invitation. Call me (467-8943) or e-mail (dave.zeplin@novartis.com) if you run a Pacesetter campaign and didn't receive an invite. If your campaign runs in the fall, you'll be included in the next round, date to be determined (mid-August to early September).

We're trying something a little different this year. . .I'd call it Training "Lite". I can't give away all the secrets of the "Home Office". . .but there's been a lot of work to make this event more interactive, less formal (in terms of how the actual training is conducted), and hopefully. . .as effective (or more effective) as training in the past. We'll have you outta there before 5pm too.

Look for me. . .I'll be in either a red or a white polo. . . Let me know if you like my polo, because you'll have the opportunity to. . . Hmmm, better stop there. I don't want to give too much away. Oh . . .be thinking about (and working) on your campaigns! It's closer than you think.

Thanks everyone. Thanks for supporting United Way. Dave

"We" Live United

Hi All--

United Way is rolling out a new advertising campaign this year. It's call "Live United". It's fresh and fun. Our Lincoln/Lancaster County UW folks have put their own local spin on it as well. Look for more information on the "Live United" campaign in the weeks ahead.

Thanks for checking in. Thanks for supporting United Way.
