Virginia Shuey – Wireless Works – For all of your cellular needs. (Did you know that people over the age of 25 still wear a wristwatch, but people under the age of 25 seldom do … BECAUSE IT’S NOT A MULTI-FUNCTIONAL DEVICE!)

Speakers
Dominic Gunder – AEGIS Pest Services – Reviewed the various types of cockroaches that we find locally. Dominic shared his passion for traveling to Africa to help facilitate clean water to the natives of Africa, some of which is done by harvesting rainfall. Dominic explained that the name AEGIS is Greek for “Protection” … and Dominic works hard to protect homes from invasive (and damaging) insects.

John Davis – Send Out Cards – John is a Manager with Send Out Cards and he is very close to being promoted to a Senior Manager with Send Out Cards. John reviewed how setting values has helped bring him to this point in his relationship with Send Out Cards, and shared with us how these four core values will continue to help him.
1st Value – Authenticity – Being Authentic
2nd Value – Spirituality – Always working from Center of the true self to reach others in a meaningful way.
3rd Value – Intimacy – Connecting the real Me with the real Other (Why is the waitress being rude today? Because her child is very sick, or because she is going to school as well as working two jobs and she is worn out. I will connect with the person who is hiding behind this façade today and make her day a little better).
4th Value – Personal Growth – Constantly investing resources (time, energy, compassion, passion, etc) into growing.
