QUOTE OF THE MONTH "Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift; that's why they call it the present." - Eleanor Roosevelt
JULY LUNCHEON
So your company wants a connection to sustainability. And now marketing has to figure out how to do it. Come to AMA's July lunch event and hear Liz Cawood, local marketing guru and green pioneer, tell you how to make sustainability more than just another buzz word. Plan to take home practical ideas and strategies that will help you reorient your approach to marketing and make authentic sustainability statements. Plus, you'll walk away with some must-have resources to assist you in keeping up with this emerging way of life. Reserve your seat for "What's sustainability got to do with it?" Meeting Details:
Thank You Sponsors
PRESIDENT'S LETTER Jenny Obermiller, President, SW Oregon
For many, summer represents a lackadaisical period. Schools shut down and students are dismissed for summer break. Evenings seem to linger forever. A lot of us spend time participating in summer activities we love - from barbecues with friends to miniature (in my case) golfing excursions, to watching the Ems while eating a veggie boy at Civic Stadium. For working professionals, however, the summer hiatuses we used to love growing up are hindered by the reality of the 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. Monday-Friday daily grind. Because of this reality, the Board of Directors of the Southwest Oregon Chapter has decided to shake it up. As opposed to operating on summer AMA hiatus, we made the collective decision to continue hosting luncheons and networking events. While many non-profits take a break, we want to provide our members with ample opportunities to learn and have some fun. In July, local marketing guru Liz Cawood will discuss how to "Go Green" in marketing through various sustainability ideas and tactics. We invite you to sign up for this luncheon on www.eugemeama.com. And keep your eyes open for a networking event in August also. As our chapter continues to thrive, the need for additional volunteers grows. We've elected three new positions this year: vice president of public relations and networking (Anne Marie Levis, Funk/Levis & Associates); co-vice presidents of communications (Dana Turell, CAWOOD and Kelly Colvin-Smith, Funk/Levis & Associates) and co-vice presidents of membership (Linda Apling, Moss Adams and Karen Ory, Harrang Long Gary Rudnick). They join 11 other talented board members. If you are interested in getting involved with one of our committees, please contact Christine Morgan, our new president elect, or me. I am thrilled to begin my year as president of the Southwest Oregon Chapter. Our dynamic board, the quality programming and depth of our membership leads me to believe we're going to have a stellar year. Let's shake it up! I look forward to hearing from you. - Jenny PROMOTIONAL PHOTOS AT MONTHLY LUNCHEONSFor the last few lunches, you may have seen photographer and AMA-member Jon Myers, with Moonray Images, walking about during our networking time taking photos. The Communications committee would like to invite you to smile and have fun in some photos. We plan on using the photos to promote our chapter to current members and to potential members, to let them know what a great time we have at events. The photos would be published in our monthly eNews, the eBuzz, the local chapter website, and possibly other promotional materials as we see fit. Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns about this great new addition to our chapter at ama@eugeneama.com. MEMBER BENEFIT ONLINE AREA
