Dont forget to forward this newsletter to a prospective member, and invite her to attend the February meeting! Recruiting is in full swing. Any current or retired professional educator is eligible, so look down the hall at school, among your fellow retired teachers, or at other educators in our community, and invite one or more of them. Let them experience firsthand the close bonds we share, the informative programs, and the potential for learning new ideas and serving others. Its time to share this gift by offering the benefits of membership to more outstanding educators. If you already have someone in mind and she wants to join us, email Jerrie Dooley at jemdooley@austin.rr.com for directions on the recommendation form.
