Thank you for signing up for this Friday’s event.  We are going to have a great time.  I have a lot of information to share with you and I’m doing it a bit late in the evening since we had to make a number of changes to the website.  Here are a couple of quick items I wanted to share with you.

 

·         We are going to have a registration table at the door where you can pick up your name tags. 

·         We have made one change in that we will be selling beer and wine/cocktail tickets to make things easier for the club.  We are using their prices which is $6.00 for the beer and $12.00 for wine or a cocktail.  The price includes the tip for the bartender.  To make this go as smoothly as possible you can do the following.

o   If you would like to buy your beverage tickets in advance just go to https://wpscf.org/public/ShoppingCart.php

o   You can also use your credit card at the door – we will have a credit card reader.

o   Of course, you can use cash to purchase the tickets.

·         Registration will start at 6PM.

 

I’ve had a number of people ask what the dress code is (what is business casual)?  I, myself, am wearing a sport jacket without a tie but nice slacks and a shirt with a collar works just fine as well (polo shirt).  Obviously, we can’t wear jeans at the club.

 

There will be high top tables as well as some other tables located in the room but we are hoping people take the time to move around the room and mingle with each other.  Of course, let’s make our guests feel right at home.

 

We’ll have a chance to mix and mingle from 6PM to 7:30PM.  At that time, I will have some brief updates for you and hopefully we’ll get to hear a little about the Distinguished Graduate Luncheon that was held this week. 

 

My closing comments for the evening.  We received some feedback from Founders Day attendees that we have been trying to attend to. 

·         Members would like the ability to sign on and see who is coming to events in advance.  If they see someone that hasn’t signed up, then they can try to coax them to attend.

·         They would like to make changes to the names on an attendee list (not add, just change).  The reason for this is that their given name is not necessarily they name that should be on a nametag.

·         They want to ability to check their event registrations to make sure everything is correct.

 

I have been trying to finalize these changes prior to this event.  So, if you know your login, you can login and on the member screen you will see the “Upcoming Events” section with a new button to view attendees for each upcoming event.

Once you’re viewing the attendees you will also see a “MY EVENT DETAIL” where you can see your attendees and make any changes to their names and category.

If you do not know your log in information – just drop me an email OR  go to our website at https://wpscf.org and press the “Login” button at the top right of the screen.  You will be taken to the login screen shown below.  You can click on the forgot password to receive an email to reset your password (it works now!). 

 

I will probably remember more tomorrow and will send out an update.  We look forward to seeing you.

 

Regards,

Jim
