Remember our new Recruiting Campaign.
It's easy. You just invite your friends, teammates or neighbors to
the remaining Guides events. Try to contact families who have
children in their last year of preschool through 2nd grade in
particular. This is a great way to show prospective new members the
fun and quality time we have as Adventure Guides and Princesses.
They can even come to our Spring Campout. You may not have room in
your own circle, so assure them that new circles will form in the
fall. For the camp-out however you will act as their sponsor. To
register online they will need to call Haley Hauger (248-644-9036)
to obtain a facility access code. Or they can come to the Birm YMCA,
and register at the front desk.
And
speaking of Recruiting ....
