It's been awhile since you heard from us so let me get you up to speed...
In April, we had some amazing events...
On April 13 we had our members only dinner at Paragon. 18 amazing women came together for great conversation and wonderful food! It was a tight fit in their private dining area but we had a lovely evening! We have realized that with a group that large, we need to split the updates and requests & offers into 2 groups of 9-10. Gourmet Productions in LO will be the location in May...don't miss their amazing risotto!
On April 22, B. Douglas Bouland, the world's master connector, coordinated a night at Bedford Brown in NW Portland. BB opened their doors to us with grace and style! 40 women and men enjoyed grapefruit martinis and incredible nibbles from Gourmet Productions. The Prosciutto Biscuit Sandwiches were TO DIE FOR! Portland Parks Foundation was our featured non profit on Earth Day...how appropriate huh?
Here are some comments from those who attended the evening of "linking" and learning about home decor:
Ø The setting, the people, the openness of the individuals of the group, the product were all very inspiring.
Ø Totally informative, enjoyable evening in a wonderful atmosphere!
Ø Lots of fun! Thanks
Ø I really liked this event. It was low key and it was great to hang out in such a beautiful space.
Ø It was fun to see B&B and the guys and staff are lovely. ...the place is fantastic....:-) Truly a hidden jewel!
Ø This was a fun way to see (and smell) some great home ideas. Easy mingling and beautiful things!
In early April, I stepped in as the Executive Director at Girls Inc. of NW Oregon. Girls Inc inspires girls 8-18 to be strong, smart and bold by providing research based curriculum and events to prevent drug and alcohol abuse, pregnancy, and relational aggression. The Link has supported Girls Inc. since 2004 and I had been a member of the board from 2005-2008. Many members of The Link have attended their events such as Power of the Purse and Heart of a Woman. 2 members of The Link currently hold board seats. I am honored to work with an amazing staff and board who are passionate about "the girls". You can now say that we are in the business of supporting girls of all ages to reach their full potential!
We have great events in May...DO NOT MISS the May 12th event on Social Media! I just signed up to Twitter! What am I getting myself into???? Follow me at http://twitter.com/ctort.
Doug Mendenhall's seminar on "Risk Takers vs Risk Talkers" is amazing!!!!! Take Friday, May 29 as a "support self" day and eliminate your fear of failure!
Happy Spring to all!
